If you have one of these I want to know what you know

Are those Iowa tags on that truck? Maybe it's seen some rough winters. Better check undercarriage closely for rust, etc. Especially the brake and fuel lines.

Dual radiator has a "Y" pipe prone to breaking but that's an easy fix!

I think he means if the one you own now looks and runs like new then keep it.

Fix what?

If you buy this truck, plan on spending some time detailing the interior - looks like no pride in ownership to me. Does the guy have service records? Has it ever been waxed?

Good luck!

This girl has one.

Check the idle hours. It is one of the menus in the gauge display. Stay away from anything greater than 20% idle hours. Preferably sub 15%. Make sure the water pump recall has been done. Drive it around long enough for it to get to operating temp to ensure head gaskets are not blown due to tuning. If coolant gets past 205F with normal driving and keeps climbing, then that is a sure sign. Use the exhaust brake a several times to make sure there are no VGT faults.

Ask when the last time the CCV filter was replaced(should be every 65k) and when he last time the trans filter was changed. If is over 150k, then the valve lash adjustment should have been done. This costs a few hundred bucks if you have someone do it.

If none of these pop up, then you have your self a nice rig there.

If it is not broken, why try to fix it?
