After looking at Tundras, 4Runners, LC100s, GX470s, Tahoes, Burbs, Avalanches.... All overpriced, junk, rusted, etc; I finally found a great deal on a truck- my father-in-law's 05 Z71 ECSB Silverado. Although, I think bringing him along to dealers seeing all those shiny new trucks is what made him want a new one and ask if I wanted to buy his. He was the 2nd owner, meticulously maintained and cleaned. Probably the cleanest GMT800 pickup in my area. The 5.3 has some serious get-up compared to what I'm used to.
Needs a few small GM things.. new evap canister probably, has that annoying steering wheel knock, few dash lights out here and there, needs tires bad but has new bilsteins, new brakes, and new wheel bearings. Not sure whether to go 285/70-17 or 34x10.5x17 since I don't want to lift it much or at all and mess with it, and it only has 3.42 gears. Looking forward to having this truck for a while, still can't believe I bought a domestic full-size pickup.
