I can't remember the post but someone replied with a suggestion to store a winch in the passenger cabin & attach on the front or back bumper as needed. I like this idea because they put salt on the road here in the winter & because that's one less winch to bring & saves weight. If I remember...

Are you saying that only you & people that eat like you are normal? Talking that way is going to offend someone. Do you mean to refer the Standard American Diet?

This comparison explained with a good example is what I was looking for in all my time on overland bound Thanks MidOH

Thanks Zrex

So you have no opinion on the Toyota Tundra?

Ah

@ThundahBeagle is there a point to these last 2 messages or just a poem?

I completely agree with you. I'm 44 years old but have no experience with vehicles. I was mentioning the above mods because I might want to put a motocross on top of the tonneau cover. I see from others' replies as well as yours, that these mods are expensive as well as a big gamble. Thank you

Thanks MazeVX

I heard that Rams run great until they break then they break catastrophically. I only heard this from 1 mechanic so I guess you disagree right? I would also like to ask you what you think of "Chevy as in are they also easy to work on?"

Thank all of you because of this thread I double-checked & the 2nd gen avalanche has a window that stays in place!

I love the Avalanche for its ability to switch between long bed & crew cab. I also liked it because being GMC it should be easy to work on. I don't like that if I have the backseat down & converted to a long bed the whole truck is unsecured & the passenger cabin is exposed to the elements Any...

The last mentioned mod would be to make the bed compatible with a RSI smart cap or black diamond tonneau cover. Judging by your reply this is either difficult to make both sides the same or compromises the structural integrity.

So what if I removed the sails & then cut the body of the Avalanche to force the bed & body to be 90°? Or is that little bit of metal structural?

Thanks

I really like the Chevy Avalanche but want manual transmission. If I get a Silverado or a Tundra how hard would it be to install drop down seats & drop down metal wall so that it has the same feature as the Avalanche?

You guys were absolutely right. I really like that convertible bed & I'm not willing to give up a standard transmission. Watch out for my next post

Yes I agree but to high leaves you vulnerable to tipping over on turns on windy days. I'm thinking 10" clearance is ideal

I have no I sea where I want to go as I've been over landing to only 1 location so far

Honestly I love to havea Sherp but I think that I would stand out more than I would like
