Well, the pics are not real good because it is raining, but here is my new Duramax. 2005, 52k miles, dark grey, leather interior, power everything. It needs a good cleaning, but overall I really really like it.

Very nice LT! You will love it!

I just ordered some floor mats, bug shield, door handles for it. I should get my BF Goodrich swapped over this week and then I can get some good pics once it is all waxed and detailed. Dude sure did not do me any favors in the way of cleaning it before I picked it up. Of course, I am the pickiest guy in the world when it comes to a vehicle or any of my toys. drive

i want one too, whats a used one like that cost?

Subject: Re: New toy Sat Feb 21, 2009 9:09 pm

Well, I priced several. Blue book is close to 27k according to my bank. I paid considerably less. If you look around I would say you could get a real nice one for around 20-23k. When I say a real nice one I mean one with low miles and with a lot of options. Mine is fully loaded with leather, sunroof, Bose sound system, etc.

wow, things like they are i figured much less. But you got a nice one, my z71 is a LT model and its nice to get all the extras.

Subject: Re: New toy Sat Feb 21, 2009 9:30 pm

MIGHT AS WELL BUY A NEW ONE AND GET THE FULL WARANTEE

Subject: Re: New toy Sat Feb 21, 2009 9:39 pm

I priced new ones........even with rebates and military discount I was still looking at over 33k. That was just out too far out of my budget with the added cost of insurance and all.

LT if you taking the tires off your 1500 and putting them on the new truck just make sure they are at least load range D any less and the truck will wonder. load range E is best for that heavy diesel.

Subject: Re: New toy Sat Feb 21, 2009 10:35 pm

My BF G's are load range C 285/75/16. Talked to several on diesel forums and they said not to worry. I don't plan on towing anything more than my 18' trailer. I don't think I could afford to tow anything more, since I paid too much for my truck and all LOL

Subject: Re: New toy Sun Feb 22, 2009 11:21 am

Load range F is even better!

Subject: Re: New toy Sun Feb 22, 2009 1:00 pm

Nice truck perfect10

Subject: Re: New toy Sun Feb 22, 2009 4:00 pm

I stand corrected. My BF Gs are load range D. I cleaned up the interior today........just a little too cold to wash it and also it is supposed to rain tomorrow.
