Time for the best towing channel to test this
Yup.
Kyle Conner on Out Of Spec already did a towing test of this
@@yayinternets Hoovie’s the towing testing legend on TH-cam. No one else’s test matters.
towing capacity
Who?? I want to see a side by side test!!
Do not care about it being an EV, but do like the idea that GM brought back the Avalanche. Now if they could utilize the same tech on a smaller platform and make like a mini-Avalanche to compete with the Maverick and Santa Cruz.
El Camino?🤨
@@icecubesbrother If it was the Holden Ute, then yes. Would rather go for S-10/Sonama again.
@@goufr3540 Call it the Jimmy/Envoy/HEV2/Scottsdale make an SUV/XUV/Avalanche similar size to a K5, and introduce a hybrid variant to add modern outlets/utility. not a soft roader. and add retro graphics/styling.
Have a 2003 Avalanche. New truck should be AvElanche
Best name ever.
Will this EV run over 20 years later like your Avalanche has?
Or E-valanche
@@dwnrange7812 most likely.
@@rdramos13 maybe E-vilanche
Truck? What truck? Sorry, distracted by April.
Those headlights are distracting for sure.
Easy there simps
LOL April worries about being replaced by an EV truck. Keep wearing tops like that, you’ll be fine.
April and her two friends😮
She looks so much better as a blond vs brunette.
So they want us to get rid of our gas vehicles for electric...to save money on gas? So spend 100k. To save what 2500 a year on gas? Surrrrre
Have you priced a top of the range full size gas pickup recently?
Subtract the cost to charge all of those electric miles and your net savings vs gas is not very much.
And the Chevy “gas” truck will still be around in 40 or 50 years as a classic workhorse. The EV version….. not so much. As soon as the batt goes ⬇️
Factor in the resale value of a gas truck and the economics of an EV just aren’t there. Only if you buy a used EV after the 70% depreciation does it make sense, but even then, you’re not guaranteed that the manufacturer will service it. Just look at the Nissan Leaf….
@SuzukiKid400 ill never get a ev
The truck is hot but April is hotter. Damn.
She has a better front end for sure 😊
@@kmorton54definitely. The trunk is non-existent lol
@@jakethesnake4971no junk in the truck
@Fony_turgeson chicken nugget Ferguson lol. But yes correct, flat butt
Put down the phone and locate your front door. 🙄
Spending $97k on an electric vehicle is like filling your portfolio with nothing but Sears and KMart stock.
More like GameStop
More like Enron.
More like Betamax
Not even close to being the same thing.
GM is only doing this for green credits. No one who works for a living will want it.
It will be selling for 50k used in a year.
It's definitely better to lease these.
Still too much.
27K
😂😂😂😂 fact
No matter what you buy it for used it'll be a ticking time bomb in regards to some random module going bad and ruining the battery. Gm/Chrysler are known for electrical problems. When the whole car is electric...watch out.
5K off? LOL, they'll need to take 50K off for me to even give it any consideration.
Great... another unaffordable EV. Honestly, YT has become one big echo chamber from all these prominent automotive TH-camrs showing off things average Americans can't afford.
Easy. Its just 100,000$ 😆
It's very affordable.In 1-2 years it's gonna cost 40k
Cars have become very very expensive. Here in Europe it is showing in the sales numbers, sales of EV's are way down and most of it is due to the pricing. For a Ford Mach-E for example you have to pay somewhere between 60 and 70.000 EURO. Which middle class family can afford it? Here in Belgium sales are still reasonable but that's because most of the office workers have a company car as part of their salary package and companies are still buying them for their workers since they are still 100% deductible here where gas/diesel cars only are about 70% deductible. But when the government is changing that (talks are that they are bringing them at the same level as gas/diesel so companies will only get them 70% deductible) sale of EV's will grind to a halt. It happened here before with solar panels, nowadays people aren't installing them as much due to the incentives being gone. And tbh, even gas/diesel cars are getting very pricy these days... (at least here)
Yep, next video , keep on moving , nothing to see here ….
Work harder.
97k, go ahead and burn your money. Let me know what that thing is worth a year from now. No average person is buying that thing.
They did say its the fully optioned first edition model, I dont know what the start price is but I'd assume in the 70's probably
*The wisest thing that should be on everyone's mind currently should be to invest in different streams of income that don't depend on the government. Especially with the current economic crisis around the world. This is still a good time to invest in gold, silver, and digital currencies (BTC, ETH...)..*
I began investing in stocks and Def earlier this year, and it is the best choice l've ever made. My portfolio is rounding up to almost a million and I have realized that when a stock makes it to the news, chances are you're quite late to the party, the idea is to get in early on blue chips before it becomes public. There are lots of life changing opportunities in the market, and maximize it.
What opportunities are there in the market, and how do I profit from it?
You can make a lot of money from the market regardless of whether it strengthens or crashes. The key is to be well positioned.
I would really like to know how this actually works.
All you need is a good capital and the service of a professional broker, with those your investment will most certainly produce high yields.
More than my house. A brand new Chevy Silverado 1500 starts at $36,000. Why would you pay triple for electric?
That’s work truck the top end Silverado is 70k if you want to compare. This is also a first edition and the actual higher end ones will be be less than 90k like this one and the work truck version of the ev will be around 58.
@@kman0074 you're right
Right? Why pay a premium to be inconvenienced by this overpriced rolling junkyard?
What's the fuel/energy cost difference. You will NEVER make up that cost difference
@@cndream1fully loaded f150 lariat is a obout $78k. I spend about $100 per week in gas. It would take me 10 years to break even if it costs 50% to fill up and not consider lower maintenance costs. *Not a scientific method.
I still wouldn't buy a 100k whether gas or electric.
You could buy a nice little condominium for that kind of money about 7 or 8 years ago. The idea that you need to drop between 70 and 100,000 bucks for a pickup truck is beyond stupid. That's more than a Year's pay at the lower end for most people. In 1956, my father made $10,000 a year, and a new car cost $2,200 bucks. His first house cost $14,500 bucks. The comparative cost of vehicles and homes nowadays is way more expensive in terms of how much longer it takes to earn the money to buy these necessities. You need to have more outrage about the prices of new vehicles.
your dad sounds like my dad. my parents bought a house for $18,500 in '64 and he was making $12, 000/yr as a highschool principal
No that's more than a year's pay for 80% of American adults!
America....the land of debt and corrupt politicians not doing their jobs and letting corporations price gouge on everything.
Because a few idiots are willing to pay these prices that sets the market for everyone else. Unless the government intervenes thats the way its going to be 😅
Does that mean you or your dad will be selling his house for $14,500 when it’s time to sell? Of course not because things naturally go up in price.
@@charlesbortz5524 no it mean's a house was affordable for a family of 4 on one income for an actual middle class. By your assumption of prices naturally going up the average house today will be $14,000,000 in 50 years
Bet it cost more to charge it to full at a supercharger then a tank of gas!!!!!!
200 KW. Would be $165 at the supercharge near me. That would be from 0-200
@@BCNeil exactly. I am all for EV in Cars but trucks still makes ZERO sense to me at that price!! And yes I understand the whole home charging thing , but trucks are meant for long haul and road trips so I bet supercharging will be 80% of the trucks life.
@@MikeWolff1 You think 80% of the time you'd be driving 800+ miles?
@@drunkenhobo8020 what gets 800 miles??? This Truck might do 400 and under a load I bet that gets cut in half!!!
@@MikeWolff1 Yeah but the first 400 miles you'd have used electricity from home at a much, much cheaper rate. It would only be if you're going another 400 miles it would cost the $165.
“April’s Garage” is chilling to listen to!!! Be careful Hoovie…
You’ll are doing the pee-pee dance about how excited you are but what about the real world. You don’t talk about real world tow range or that you have to unhook your trailer to charge it at your public charger. Not everyone has access to a charger in their backyard . And the weight OMG(9000lbs?)and the price. Can’t get excited about the EVs .
And one look at the under body would make me never want to off road ever in the slightest, and be incredibly afraid of straddling debris on the road while driving.
Do you even understand what the majority of the marketplace needs? What is needed is a good used vehicle, of any type, for less than $10,000. That’s reality.
That would be a mid-2000's Avalanche and it likely would need a bunch of work
Agree. These are ridiculous lorries bought by egocentric narcissists. Over here we have the "Tyre extinguishers", all they do is unscrew the cap of the tyre valve of cars like this, put a tiny stone in it and then put the cap back. Great initiative.
If my car dies I am buying and electric bicycle. I can't afford to pay $800 a month for an over connected and complicated vehicle that will probably have multiple system failures about 1.5 seconds after my warranty expires. .
@@ericcarlson920 check the prices on those babies. You can’t even get close to 10,000 for one of those.
Turns out manufacturers don’t make used vehicles.
Another urban mall crawler worth 50 percent of its original price after two years.
It's a freaking pickup truck, not the best form factor for off-roading. On road is where this form of vehicle belongs.
@@Neojhunit’s not really a pickup it’s a suv with a small bed. Like most of these over sized beasts gas or ev they are not nearly as useful as the last 3500 I owned from the 90s unless driving the kids to school is the point.
@@chuckdavis8440 "with a small bed." With the pass through folded down the bed is over 9 NINE FEET!!! Why are you bunch soo ignorant.
@@chuckdavis8440 "over sized beasts gas or ev" Cybertruck is not that big and doesn't Weigh much. Yes it has many other flaws but weight and foot print size is not the problem. Your 3500 would dwarf a Cybertruck.
She is Beautiful (Not the Truck) 😊
I prefer lower maintenance rides (not the truck)
@@KrustyKlowncouldn’t have said it better lol
I prefer people that stick to the topic, not juvenile muppets that get off on a pretty lady. You came here for car content, right? Maybe comment on that.
Simps ruin everything.
camera angles and choice of clothing is obvious draw
Nope, as nice as it is.
Can't wait until Whistlindiesel "tests" it
The Chevy is cool, but I'd rather have an April. Tyler, you lucky dog, you,
Nope I’ll stick with my Gas Powered Truck
Not even Truck guys like Gasoline Powered trucks.
What a great couple!
It shows wayyyyyyyy too much plastic to be $100,000
It should be loaded at $89,000 or less.
Gonna take a NOSE DIVE in depreciation.
Especially when it's selling new for $70,000 with incentives in a year's time.
Typical american cars , and somehow people still waster their money. Smh
You talking about the truck or April?
I thought the "CyberTruck Killer" was a functioning set of eyes...
Make it a hybrid and I’ll consider it.
Diesel hybrid
Dodge has you covered...next year atleast.
Terrible economy where no one has money and you can’t get loans; and these companies keep releasing the most expensive version first. That makes sense /s
Speak for yourself. I just bought a second car and going to be buying a second home this year.
Someone has money, it's just not us.
@@charlesbortz5524No one as the masses. I have money too. Doesn’t mean this will have much of a market. Look at its competition. They’re all sucking it up sales wise.
Gentlemen of culture, I think we need to recognize April for her bountiful addition to the video today.
"Not alot to look at on these electric vehicles..." well, April is there 😂😅😊😅😊
Gee, it's like rating the best pile of , well , you know. Does that mean it stinks less or more?
I thought this was fun to watch, I love the "April's Garage" intros and you guys are so cute together. Loved seeing Hoovie get excited and if this is where marketing is headed, I'm ok with it. Peace and prosperity my dudes ✌️
$100k for a pos Chevy that is not a Corvette? Hard no.
Today I learned the Avalanche has a fold down seat to extend the bed.
That's basically why it existed
This truck is by far superior to the Cybertruck. I predict the Cybertruck will be discontinued or completely redesigned after 2 years.
Yea, Chevy won the special Olympics.
😂
How many times or different forms of rejection do we need to give these automakers. Nobody is asking for this product.
I agree. April can be as enthusiastic as she wants, EV's are garbage and most people realize it. That's why demand has fallen through the floor.
Well, the govs. of the world are trying to force EVs around, so they have to make them. Wouldn't want to get caught with no EVs or no EV tech when all the govs. of the world go: Nope, no more ICE cars.
But the government said we need it.
@@IraqVet0608 I did the same type of comment previously to answer to this comment and it was deleted... lol
@@chassegallerie2910well if we all unite together, maybe they will get the point!
Yuck. Not a truck. A wannabe
They could call it E-valanche
These videos are so much better when April starts them....LOL
I have never owned a GM product. This Silverado EV? If I could afford it, I'd certainly consider it.
Did the designers steal the Chevy Avalanche milk money along with their homework?
Gasoline does not cost that much.
Paid 2.19 at Meijer in Illinois Friday.
I see recall coming.
You mean RECALLS as in multiple 😅
For a few more bucks one can buy a house instead of this OVERPRICED dumb truck 😂
Fu%k me how much !
That buys a lot of diesel/ petrol !!!
love the concept, but it's twice as expensive as it should be. Who can afford these trucks? Talk to me when it's $45k
I think 73k would be OK!
It'll be there in less than 2 years by depreciation
They need to be the same price and there needs to be incentives for the consumer to buy one that brings the price down lower than gas. Otherwise why bother?
EV = exploding vehicle. Can you just imagine the ball of fire from that huge battery when it shorts out one day
I see you either didn't TAKE physics, or failed when you did.
@@m4rvinmartiani see you don’t know what happens when a lithium battery shorts. spoiler alert it heats up and the electrolytes catch fire. The more batteries there are in the circuit the longer the fire will go. The only way to stop the fire other than letting it die out naturally is by quickly cooling the battery cells that haven’t caught fire yet and separating them from the ones that are already burning. most of the fires happen while charging meaning if you charge in a garage not only will it catch other things on fire it will likely be impossible to put out as you can’t get access to the battery pack. LMK when you get your degree in physics as you sure as hell don’t have it now.
@@cjoe5977 That is, IF it shorts out. OP said "when", suggesting that it will happen.
@@_Jester_ you’re right it won’t happen to all cars however if a car gets in a minor accident it can still cause damage to the batteries it’s just not a risk i think we should be taking as a country allowing them in parking garages
@@cjoe5977 nicely said sir. I wasn’t even going to respond to him
Electric garbage
I always thought it was kind of weird to name a truck after something that falls down a mountain 😅
The only thing I would excited about is april she is a babe you are very lucky to have her in your life Tyler
She does have nice girls 😊
Hoovie is really excited about the Avalanche and that's cool. I liked the puppy show.
Still not a fan of a ev I'd rather have a diesel.
Remember when your little toy cars had the 4 AA batteries underneath, that seemed disproportionately large for the vehicle just to make the lights blink. There ya go, we've gone back in time. Just flip it over and raid the wife's nightstand for 50 D batteries
Looks like an Electric Avalanche! Beats em all, Tesla, Ford, Rimac in range, styling and curb appeal, Hands Down! As Always, May God Bless you and yours! 😇
That flimsy battery cover under the hood of a $100k truck. 🤦♂️
April: "What's that stuff leaking?" Let's face the reality, If April wasn't cute, she'd be so annoying after a short time. Alot of times she doesn't even know what Hoovies talking about and she just says "right". Beings attractive plays a big role in her success. With all that being said she does seem like a nice person though.
Sweet another absurdly expensive and nearly useless product.
The ramcharger is the only new ev/hybrid truck I’d consider at this point since I tow race car and dirt bike trailers around. My Hemi has been great and while I would love a diesel they have just become too complex and expensive.
those things are junk
@@777poco They aren't being released until 2025 so I'm not sure how you determined that already. They have a super reliable and proven V6, can tow 14K, great fuel economy, and can be a generator/power source when camping. If your saying Dodge/Ram sucks I've put 400k on two different models over the past 24 years with no major problems or a single breakdown when towing the east coast.
I aint buying anything Stellantis. Oh hell no!!!
@@curtismansell5254Yeah, Stellantis is a mess right now for sure but the ramcharger concept is solid. Excited to see how it actually tows long distance.
Beg to differ. My ride has 26 inchers and it looks completely normal. Course, it's a 8500 Aluminum Trek mountain bike, but still. Still.
Lol true 50,000 definitely. Don't forget American EVS are not 100% trusted. Still remember it's a Chevy. And that mandate might be going away soon
Vote Trump and this EV stuff goes away
@@StoneCold75 No it won't 😂
What does trusted mean? Also what mandate?
9K. I suppose a similar quad cab Silverado would roll across the scale around 6, Similar to my express van. My van weighs 8K with all my tools and equipment. I don't know what that would do to my range, and then you're talking about a gross weight over 10K. Would it need dualies? Plus my van is an '18 with 140K miles. in an EV it would pretty much be time for a new battery. Ooops.
Ok, I'll bite this electric fish. It's actually very trucky, much better than that Pathetic Polygon Tesla. Way to Go GM.! But, Please drop the price at least by 25K and keep it fully loaded
Just look at ColdFusion's newest video on how new cars are spying on you. I bet you won't bite, but I bet you'll be surprised at how many companies are doing this. If this was a Nissan, it'll even track when you are having sex in the car.
I've owned an Avalanche since 2004. Love, love, LOVE that they brought it back. Not too pleased that they call it a SilvErado and the price point. But it is a beautiful EV truck.
FEVs and FKH. 🥶🔥🖕🇨🇳
At 8800 pounds, what will that do to 24" tires at $500 per tire? Inquiring minds want to know.
Buy it 2 years old for $25k
MY WOLF BURG VOLKSWAGEN PASSAT HAS 18.5 fuel tank = I get 450 miles every week all day 2.5 liters
Seats look stiff and uncomfortable too yuck 🤮
Welcome to modern GM
If April was my driver, I would give her a $1000 tip for a better driving experience... This truck is made for her... =)
April is a very smart amazing woman. But let's face it she is absolutely stunning! I saw you two in person one time, and she's even more beautiful in real life. Now, please please please get dressed up, and give us a tour of the Kitty Kat club in the back of the hangar!
I love her sense of humor. She really upped Hoovie’s life and channels
😂😂😂😂, your kidding, right?
I used to have a 2007 Avalanche LTZ, and still think about how cool that mid gate was to this day. Why did they ever stop making it?
Hard pass!
@April, to answer your question, my dashcam still uses the12v outlet.
If it wasn’t for the dang lithium batteries, I just don’t think that is where we are going to end up. I do like the return of the Avalanche concept.
What does end up mean?
Another EV no one asked for.
I have one and love it
It has long range. Exactly what people have been asking for
No one asks for cars, that’s not how making cars works.
While I like this truck and I think it’s really cool, you’d get more views and feedback if you reviewed a Corolla Hybrid or something.
She is beautiful ( not talking about April I'm talking about the truck) well April is ok too 😉 that truck is so awesome 🤘👍
Both a better buy used in 5 years when its broken in looking for a new owner…
The average household across America really can only afford $ 16,000 cars with a 5 year loan the auto industry is clueless.
Crazy, they couldnt learn from ford that this is a waste of company resources resulting in a massive loss....
this might not be the case with this one
tylers like hes at a star trek convention lol, but hes right, this is a updated and well done avalanche , you and april are a great entertaining couple, keep it going guys
I'm excited just by the shirt she's wearing lol !!
Yeah, costs $100 to charge for a 275 mile range. At home what is the charge time? Over 12 hrs! Winner😂 Buying one of these ten year vehicles is one of your worst investments ever! Not to name the disposal of the battery either as watch there’s going to be a disposal fee soon. In California they want their road use taxes too! Saving what?
Is this a paid for advert?
Sometimes car people like a vehicle. It's reviewing after ownership with the F150 Lightning and Cybertruck.
Hoovie did the lightning and the cyber truck, it only makes sense he’d give us a look at this one too
I was thinking the same thing, April seems a little too giddy and this feels like astro turfed paid propaganda by the Green New Deal Commission. Pay all You Tube automotive influencers to get people to buy EVs.
In my Dr Evil voice : "How about no..."
Just not worth the money and again I want my v8. Just can’t beat them
Way down Yonder on the Chattahoochee, it gets Hotter than a Hoovie Gucci..
Great country classic 🎶

This Channel borders on the unstated often.

Still an EV No thanks.
Americans being Americans
Trucks with beds ,40m long and they become crazy
Take their money Shevy
She is beautiful! The trucks pretty good too!
Ugly truck. Why did they have to make it look like “an EV”. Just bring back the gas Avalanche, this overpriced RC car is a waste of money. Can’t tow, fast depreciation, can’t work on it yourself, no mods. No thanks.
Wow a 200kWh battery is a JOKE! The world needs efficiency, a battery that size the truck may as well have a 6.0L
Apparently there's a guy named Tyler in this video and a truck ...I didn't see it
That truck is a joke My best buddy works at a GM dealership and all he did back in the day was replaced the leaky seals on those rear windows they were a disastrous crap that truck is nothing but a toy
The real problem is no one will buy it.
Time to trade in that lyric....idk too much plastic and too american for a 100k price tag. These american autodealers are over valuing these vehicles. I feel like average man could afford electric in america in 20 years when theyre all depreciated junk! 😂 Definitely never buying EV
If were talking porsche and ferrari I get 100k+. Not a chevy truck. Hell no
Yet another battery on wheels gimmick.
I saw someone on another page say Chevy missed the boat when the didn’t name it the EVlanche.
Another ev junk
It doesn't have everything that the Cybertruck was supposed to have. It gets more range because it has a larger battery. If the Cybertruck had a 200KW battery it would no doubt go as far or possibly farther. It doesn't have all-wheel steering like the Cybertruck. It doesn't have steer-by-wire like the Cybertruck does. It doesn't have a lockable tonneau cover like Cybertruck does. And, it doesn't have a stainless steel exo-skeleton that can stop bullets like Cybertruck. It is certainly a nice truck though and when it gets down around $50k with all the bells and whistles, I will be buying one.
Everything you just listed is all gimmicks except for maybe the 4 wheel steering.
It has four wheel steering he even mentioned it.
