Should I buy this 2010 Chevy Avalanche?

I saw a Chevy avalanche 2010 that was mint. Pearl white not a scratch looks super clean. It has 209,000 miles. They want 9 grand for it but I can talk it down. Would it be a decent truck to daily drive? Should I go for it?

The engine in those has cylinder deactivation (or what GM calls AFM or active fuel management) which can wear out/damage the engine over time.  GM never really got it right, and that particular truck is already at 209,000 miles.  Plus you have propensity for electrical issues as well (another GM weak point).  I would pass on it.

I wasn't a fan of when the Avalanche came out, it looks too much like a Silverado. A sport utility truck (SUT) has the same characteristics as a regular pickup. I would pass.
