I am trying to thin the fleet. I think I am going to sell my dually, and my nicer jeep, and get a truck for my day to day runner. I still need a truck with some towing capacity, and heavy hauling, so I have my eyes on a 2004 silverado HD with the 6.0 auto, 4x4, extended cab, short bed. Anybody have one? I have driven a few, and I thought they were a powerhouse. The only thing I ever repair when they come through the shop is water pumps, alternators, brakes, and stupid broken plastic handles , and things like that. They seem to be fairly robust. I am pretty sure it should get close to 15 mpg on the highway, which is far better than my old 3 spd 4:10 geared dually, and right about what the Jeeps get. The one I am hot on right now, has about 105,000 miles. I see them still running very well with 150, 000 miles and up , so I am not too scared of higher miles. Any and all advice appreciated.
Thanks
