    Chevrolet 1500 diesel ?

    I can't wait till they come out! I want to compare all 3. As of now I like the Ford better than ram but ford is $20-$25k more for the same options and that I can't justify. Hopefully gm will be better pricing and numbers than ford.

    Well ended up in a Chevy just not a dmax...

    I’ll be looking into it! Not sure what options I have with the ecotec 5.3

    Would you still consider it a reliable tow vehicle? And any supporting mods? Did you do the work yourself? How much cost associated?

    Well ended up in a Chevy just not a dmax...

    So I really wanted a dmax 06-07 but couldn’t pass up the deal I got on a new 2017 Silverado 1500 sca st edition. Hopefully it’ll tow my 27’ enclosed trailer decently? Doesn’t seem to have near the power of my eco post but I love the looks of this truck!

    Nice truck, maybe a good deal

    So if I have time I may go look at that gmc tomorrow. I found a place that I might be able to have them look at the truck. It’s a duramax tuning shop. Hoping they do inspections. There looks to be a little gauge underneath the steering wheel. Any idea what that is? Air bags? And any way to know...

    http://www.bosemotors.com/2007-GMC-SierraClassic2500HD/Used-Truck/Crestwood-IL/10301896/Details.aspx Found another one in the area with lower miles but looks like the rockers maybe started to rust.

    More about resale value to me as I don’t usually keep a truck for more than 2-3 years since I get bored.

    Little more miles than I was hoping for. I’d really like to find one below 150k but they’re expensive or rotted out.

    Nice truck, maybe a good deal

    This is the other one I was looking at. Almost identical miles, year and similar color. Obviously this one is a gmc and the other is a Chevy, same price and interior options. I’m not huge on either trucks rims so I’d probably change them anyway. This one seems to have some aftermarket shocks and...

    Nice truck, maybe a good deal

    Yea I was thinking the same thing. Either he’s honest and took great care of it or not and it’s hiding rust. I’m not huge on the back rack and light bar so I’d probably remove that.

    Nice truck, maybe a good deal

    Well that last truck sold. Probably a good thing cause I heard some poor reviews of that dealership. I stopped to look at another one they have 2006 lbz 4 door long bed loaded Ltz. It was $18k with 285k miles, rockers starting to rot a bit, and it used to have a stack through the bed. Overall...

    Sounds like it sold but I’ll know for sure tomorrow.

    Nice truck, maybe a good deal

    I won’t need to have it inspected in Illinois. And actually there’s no diesel emissions either in Illinois. Unfortunately when I had my powerstroke I lived in Wisconsin and had diesel emissions which sucked having to swap exhaust and sensors and remove the tune to pass emissions. The only things...

    Nice truck, maybe a good deal

    That’s what this dealer does, they mod all the trucks and jeeps. They seem to move a lot of volume too. I’d probably try and bring it to a diesel mechanic if I got serious. I’m thinking it might be sold though since I couldn’t find it on the lot...

    Nice truck, maybe a good deal

    Yea I understand. I’m not a huge fan of the tires but I really like the wheels and the stance. Honestly I’ve always loved the “older diesels” so I think I’m just drooling over this truck. The practical thing to do would be to keep my truck but I only keep trucks for 2-3 years as I get bored. I’m...

    Nice truck, maybe a good deal

    It’s not necessarily money issue more so I am cheap. I always buy the wife a nice car (currently m series Bmw) and I by used. I just can’t justify huge payments on myself, it makes me sick. She wants me to buy a new truck but I just can’t bring myself to do it.

    Nice truck, maybe a good deal

    I emailed them yesterday but after they closed so hopefully I will find out more tomorrow. I could get into this truck for less per month than my current truck, and actually this one has more options than my xlt 150. I’m sure maintenance and fuel cost would end up making both vehicles cost the...
