My first question is why would anyone make this, and secondly, why would anyone buy it??? its 100% ugly, and IMO i dont think the Avalanche was designed to have a topper....

Why you ask??? Because it's a gadget. You get to open the inside and convert it into a pickup. "It's the first Suv that can change into a truck [blah blah blah!!!!]. It's a marketing thing man. You've got to put a different product out there on the market so others can buy it and think that their fuckin bad asses because they got the newest and ugliest thing out there that looks completely different from everything else. It's kind like me with my vehicles the longest I've kept one is for 6 months. Not my trep though I'm hangin on to her.

It was made for the working man/woman that wants a full size bed truck, but has family and needs interior room when not hauling stuff.

Could be a lot worse, just look at the Pontiac Aztec. Geez, who actually pays for these ugly ass cars?

Avalanche's don't even have a full size bed to begin with. Its as hideous as the Aztec and the "gee whiz" factor is all it has going for it.

I think the Avalanche is even uglier then the Aztec. What is GM thinking? Now the Cadillac verson of the Avalanche is nice, no plastic crap all over it! I forget the name of it though.

Escalade EXT....it is the same damn thing. They just removed the body mouldings.

In fact all the new Caddys are butt ugly. The CTS is the first of the new "Heritage" style designs. Ugly, ugly, ugly. Bob Lutz obviously didn't bring a styling team to GM with him.

Keep in mind that ugly is in the eye of the beholder... oh I agree that is one ugly truck... but my question would be are they able to sell it?

I think they are both ugly. Aztec too. They have one of those ugly Escalade EXT's sitting at Sedar's Pontiac in Mason City. It's a shame that they wasted the nice pearl white paint on it.

Yeah, I sat at that corner and stared at it too. The whole time thinking "So....that's the gaudy heap they gave a shitty rating to in Motor Trend...". I was wondering why they had it sitting way out there in the corner....not even on the lot. They are pry embarassed to have it among their other cars. Thought they would just set it on the corner like the outcast it is.
