I haven't test driven one. No need. It's a beast, once mine arrives, I'm sure I will test drive and make sure all is well with it.

I ordered mine without having seen one (as did many others!). I still haven't even sat in one but am looking forward to sitting in mine in just over a month!!

I test drive mine. Asked them before signing to go for a few mile trip. They had no issue with it.

Didnt think about it. Wanted to get the deal done and get on the road. Test drive would not have mattered. I was buying. (Kind of off topic)
ON 1/4/17 I took my son to Kia of Bedford to buy a used 2013 BMW 328I xdrive coupe with 19K miles. He had an insurance claim on his totaled car and this one looked good. Got there and did test drive. Clean Carfax. Stopped in a parking lot to check everything over. Returned to dealer and sales manager taps on the glass "you want this car or not" well.... " theres a cash buyer here from Michigan". I said I'm a cash buyer and yes I want it. Go inside expecting to do paperwork in his office, I see a guy yelling in the showroom, I'm guessing guy from Michigan is pissed he just missed it. They come back and say sorry we are selling to him. I'm like WTF? I said do you hold cars? NO. Is there a deposit on it? NO. Has he been in the car? NO....He has a cashiers check so we are selling to him. This went on and on long story. But moral of the story is just because your first and on a test drive does not mean these un moralized dealers wont sell it out from under you. Never been involved in any BS like this. I would hope 99% of dealers would not cave to an ass hole yelling and stay the course on there policies. These guys not so much. Bad place to buy cars.

Ive NEVER test driven a car before buying it. That's my "thing" I guess.

I research the car I'm buying SO ******* thoroughly there's really no need to test drive it. I know I want it and ill drive it when I own it. That's half the fun.

I remember when I got my '03 Infinity G35 sedan. The sales guy really wanted me to drive it. Said his manager didn't think I was for real. I would up driving it home, lol.

Test driving is over rated.

Come to think of it i left 5000k deposit in early August just on the car show presentation on you tube. Now its almost 9 months later and i will finally see one around the 26 of April. I am pretty sure it will be the first one i see and it will be my truck

No need to test drive. I custom ordered thru my dealer, and 4 months later took delivery. HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY!

Same boat here. Ordered end of July and ETA is 24th of April.

Ordered mine the day the order banks opened. They hadn't even released the HP/TQ numbers yet.

Same here. Had never seen Avalanche in person. I actually didn't sit in one until mine, never mind drive one.
