Not much of a difference now besides trim level, and wheels.
Avalanche is now basically the poor man's Escalade. Just the way most of the people wanted it.
I remember reading posts, where people used to try to redo their Avalanches with Escalade emblems, and other key cosmetic items just to make it look more like an Escalade.
