Looking at an '04 LLY tomorrow, what do you think of this one?

Hey Guys,
New to the forum, currently I have an '01 2500HD gas and am looking to upgrade to diesel to pull our toyhauler.
I found an '04.5 4x4 dually SLE loaded with leather crew 156,000 miles with an asking price of $13,700 and it looks pretty clean.
It's passed California smog before the sale so I know it's stock now.
Carfax is clear vin (1GTJK33274F215780) with just a couple of oil changes atl the dealer.

Diesels are new to me but the rest of the truck I'm very familiar with, mine has given me 120k trouble free miles.

What should I be looking for on these guys that might be a gotcha?
Any input is appreciated.

Steve

Looks like a nice truck for a good price, if I get time I will run a vin check for you

Thanks, I was hoping to get one.
I'm more than familiar with these trucks and the gas engine but the Duramax is all new to me.

Looks like a nice truck. Seems like it was taken care of. I'd take a look at the VIN check and see what's been going on the service side of it.

That's a great price if it's a solid truck!

I went from a 01 3500 6.0L to a 05 3500 LLY and never looking back...
