Been trolling around here and autotrader for a couple of months, trying to decide whether or not I wanted to move into a Raptor. Almost bought a 2012 that was in a great shape, low miles, and some good mods but I knew I’d end up wishing I had a Gen 2. Got lots of good input from some guys on here about 17s vs 19s and although they made lots of good points for the 19, I couldn’t justify the extra $.

So this past weekend I flew to Texas and picked up an avalanche grey 2017 SCAB with the 802a and orange accents and some simple upgrades. Also came with an extended warranty which kind of sealed the deal. The whole 700 mile drive back to Colorado Springs I had a grin on my face. Plus I averaged over 17 mpg going 75-80 and gaining over 6K feet of elevation...

Nice. I also have an Avalanche ‘17 SCAB 802a. Love it. No graphics or orange on mine.
