I bought this truck new in April 2005. I have used it as a work truck in the heating and cooling field. Never overloaded but well used. There are a few things that will need to be addressed. The truck has dings, dents and scratches. I will try and show them when I take the pictures. The good things about the truck include the fact that I have been the only driver and have kept up the required maintenance to this point. I have not been so careful when it comes to the appearance. The truck runs and drives great. The four wheel drive works fine. As with most four wheel drive trucks, the front tires tend to be a little jerky when the steering wheel is turned sharply and in four wheel drive mode. I have replaced both batteries recently with good batteries from Wal Mart. They have the Wal Mart warranty. I have Big-O tires on the truck. They are worn down some but still have wear left on them. They have the Big-O warranty and include free rotation and balancing. Some of the negative things about this truck is that very recently the speedometer has been acting up. Sometimes working, sometimes not. The odometer continuously works fine. The driver side seat heater also works when it wants to but often chooses not to. I have had the brakes inspected periodically and think they are still in good shape with the exception of one of the front wheels applying more pressure than the other side. I was advised by a mechanic that it was probably a brake line not allowing the fluid to travel forward and backward properly for the anti locking brakes. I replaced both front brake lines and one rear. It still acts up. I don't know but it could be a caliper that needs to be replaced. That will have to be addressed by the new owner. So in bidding keep this fact in mind. I am trying to list everything that I can think of and be as honest as I can. I want no problems or issues after the sale. If you have specific questions, please ask and I will do my best to answer them. The driver seat entry side on the side is cracked. I do not believe this part of the seats are leather. It was the luxury model when I bought it new. Had just about everything available. It does not have the XM radio. It does have the phone and roadside service. I forget what it is called. It is not presently connected. It can be at the new owners discretion. The carpet has not been kept clean but has floor mats in place. The carpet will not be in the best of condition. The drivers side mirror is broken but useable. Also, the windshield is cracked. I have always used Amsoil oil and filters for oil changes. The fuel filters have mainly been purchased at the GM dealership and have been replaced as recommended by the manufacturer. The oil is high quality and is used for long intervals between changes. The truck has never failed to start even when one of the batteries was getting weak. I can't think of any other negative issues. As I have stated, the truck, to my knowledge, has no issues other than what I have listed. If I think of anything else I will add them later. So, in a few words, the truck runs and drives good, just doesn't look the greatest. Keep in mind when bidding that this is a 2005 model and may need some work done. None other than stated, to my knowledge. It will need to have the brakes checked, the speedometer and the seat heater, if you want, new tires in the future. So keep these potential expenses in mind when bidding. Allow for some possible other expenditures once you have the vehicle. Thank you for looking. The truck is sold as. No guarantees. No refunds. A $500.00 non refundable deposit is required at the end of the auction with the remainder due in cash when the vehicle is picked up. I do have a clear title. You are welcome to contact me and come see the vehicle in person. As you can see in the pictures, the truck is in need of a good cleaning. It'll probably cost you a couple hundred dollars for this, so keep it in mind when bidding.
