It has the 6.6L turbo diesel too and every option for $37000.
Lol as I said in my previous post if you don't need to haul or tow anything big it doesn't make sense to own one. Higher cost, to own and operate. Will eat diesel, which also costs more than gas atm. But if none of that matters to you then go for it.
I was more or less joking lol. I mean if I could get a real deal on one I wouldn't be opposed to it though.Quote:

The 5.3 liter lasts to 200k+ all the time. I know some diesels make it to 500k before the engine is in serious need but very few people keep vehicles that long and as you said by the time that happens you have replaced 4-6 transmissions, 3 rear ends and the suspension about 8 times.
i'd rather shoot myself than do that :Ohno:Quote:

If they put in keys, it's not quite as bad, but still puts additional stress on them, and will make it ride exceptionally harsh. It also puts more angle on the stock front half shafts and will wear them out quicker.
Looks like a nice truck though, and with the best looking wheels chevy ever put on a half ton :yup:
Pretty sure it has struts and springs up front. Definitely leveled unfortunately
if you posted it in an LS group I more than likely am in that group lol im in quite a few...Quote:

Yeah you're right I forgot. It's the coil spacers, not the torsion bars. So yeah, it wont have any spring or ride issues, but the headlights are probably blinding people, and the front driveline angles are still increased. And it wont take loads very well (the reason trucks are "raked" in the first place).Quote:
