2004.5 Chevy 2500HD CC D/A LB 4X4 ordered new and revised as a 1 ton (airbags added, Rancho 9000 sdj shocks, and 265 tires vs the OEM 245's) for hauling our 11'4" Lance TC or our 12,800 lb loaded to travel Carriage Carrilite 5th wheel as that's all the truck has ever been used for. Nearly 170K on the odometer and never had any repairs needed or done and never been back to a dealer repair facility or other repair location for any reflashes or repairs to the driveline or truck other than having new front brake pads put on at just over 125K. Normal wear items! I did replace a couple burned out light bulbs over the years if that matters.
The trucks still tight with NO rattles, absolutely zero rust, drives and handles and looks just like new, no worn out seats or bad wear spots and very comfortable, and has never been garaged here in Michigan as it's too long anyway to be able to close the door. Gets great fuel mileage and is just another reason we keep driving it as it's before all the emission fuel wasting stuff was added. If it's not broke, why fix it or replace it?
100% reliable always since day one 11+ years ago!
