Nice job!! I bought my 06 LBZ a year old in 07 with 25K miles on it for $28,000. Drove it for over 6 years and put 125K more miles on and sold it in 2014 for 21.5K. So, $6500 to drive an awesome truck for 6 years. Yep, those trucks are in demand. While the diesel holding value things always true, IMO the emission stuff on the newer ones REALLY puts these at a premium.
You'll love it! Mine was generally trouble free but did take some money to keep it on the road over the years:
Both front hubs needed to be done along with some other various suspension parts - Pitman arm I think.
Tranny lines leaked a couple times (common issue for this truck)
Part of the xfer case needed to be replaced (not pump rub as you'll probably read about)
A few glow plugs along the way (unless it's super cold it's not a huge deal to run for a bit with 1 or 2 bad)
There were probably a few other things I'm forgetting. NEVER had to touch anything with the brakes.... absolutely amazing. Still had over 40% on the fronts the day I sold it according the dealer, rears even more.
Changed the oil every 8-10K along with the fuel filter, spin on tranny filter every 20K or so, air filter every 20K or so.
It was a great truck and I miss it. It was ultimately a business decision to get a new truck. Fear of upcoming repairs, tax advantage for my company for buying a new one, etc.
