2011 Chevrolet Avalanche
The 2011 Chevrolet Avalanche comes with most interesting feature, the Midgate, which allows Avalanche to convert from a five- or six-seat SUV with a 5-foot, 3-inch cargo box, to a two- or three-passenger pickup truck with an 8-foot, 1-inch box. The Midgate works similarly to a folding rear seat in a wagon or SUV.
The 2011 2011 Chevrolet Avalanche comes with a coffee warmer, and the ultimate in sun visors. Map lights are available; in fact, Chevrolet has provided generous illumination throughout the cabin. Flush-mounted cargo lights in the bed rate very high on our coolness scale and can make a big difference when loading cargo at night.
Flipping the seat bottoms forward and folding the seat backs and Midgate down provides flat cargo space and access to the cargo bay behind it. Instead of carpet, however, the Midgate is backed with a tough composite material impervious to gravel or anything else you can throw at it. But there’s more: The rear window of the cab can be quickly removed and stored out of harm’s way.
The bed cover comes off in three pieces and slides into a nice fabric bag; these pieces attach to the side of the bed to minimize the space they take up. Now you have a fully functional pickup with an open eight-foot bed.
You can park an 2011 Chevrolet Avalanche in back, with the front tires and fenders where the rear seat was moments before. Of course, this results in an open-air driving experience; there’s nothing separating you from the open pickup bed. But wind noise is minimal, with no buffeting. Only a slight breeze reminds you that your ATV is sitting on the back seat. GM engineers achieved this through extensive tuning in the wind tunnel, and a pair of flying buttresses that also add structural rigidity and can be used as tie-downs. Alternatively, you can fold down the rear seats but leave the Midgate in place, which leaves cargo space inside the cab; there’s nearly 54 cubic feet of interior cargo volume with the rear seat folded and Midgate in place.
The 2011 Chevrolet Avalanche driver Convenience Package ($717) includes power-adjustable pedals, which move up to 3 inches closer to the driver. That’s a real boon for the vertically challenged, who won’t have to sit as close to the steering wheel (and air bag) in order to reach the pedals. The adjustable pedals of 2011 Chevrolet Avalanche have a memory function, making it more convenient for mixed-height couples to share the same truck. The Driver Convenience Package also includes an eight-button, steering-wheel-mounted control system that the driver can program to access trip-computer functions, as well as OnStar and entertainment systems. Dual-zone automatic climate control also comes as part of the package. XM Satellite Radio ($325) offers 100 coast-to-coast digital channels, including 71 music channels (more than 30 of them commercial-free) and 29 channels of sports, talk, news, and children’s entertainment.

Totally depends on the type of psroen and the mall. Honestly, I’d be surprised if you got the same answer on here more than a few times. For example, at one of the local malls in the town that I’m from, I would say that I really don’t like Hot Topic. If you asked on of my closest friends the same question, she’d say that she loves that store and hates clothing stores that I like. Again, it totally depends on the psroen.Personally, I think most stores in malls have something to offer to everyone. Even if you hate the clothing store, if you look hard enough and perhaps look at style with a different point of view, you could find something that becomes your favorite accessory or piece of clothing.
