Hi Roy,
Well, I am in Canada too so if your Chevy guy is saying that about the warranty then its probably going to apply to me as well! :) I did see on the GM Canada website though that there are two "models" of the Avalanche - one with a stronger engine than the other, more horsepower. I wonder if this would make any difference, or perhaps the warranty is the same for both (?)
How sad, I thought the Avalanche was cool and would have looked mighty fine in front of a gooseneck....Oh well... I suppose I could look at other trucks that are similar with the extended cab :)

I talked to my chevy guy today (truck Salesman). He says you cannot
tow
anything other that a bumber pull with the Avalange. Will void
warranty.
This guy useually know his stuff. But we are in Canada, so it may be
different.
Why not just get a crew cab short box and a three piece bed cover ???
