    Ummm if you can hold a wrench you can maintain a diesel lol less to worry bout than gas. Yes they cost more new but for the year range he's looking at he'll be able to get 1 for very close to the money he's getting. Fuel economy is better plain and simple towing or not

    Yeah 01-04 lb7 duramax I forgot what vin code it was but I think the injector problem was just in those years and chances are they have either been warrantied or replaced by now lol

    I used my Dakota to pull a car hauler and a 66' Lincoln. My silverado struggled to pull same car.

    That's why I take a buddy and carry. Don't ever tell them you are bringing cash tell them if you like the truck you will go to your bank.

    Don't u know anyone that has a dealer license? If u do have them take you to a dealer auction. If not just don't go to their house with cash, deposit that shit and if you want their truck go with them to the bank and either transfer or get a certified check
