I bought my truck in 05 and the 03-04 6.0's were just trouble. I didn't want a brand new truck, so the 6.0 was not the answer for me. Injector design flaws, turbo issues, programming issues, egr issues... all stuff I DON'T want to deal with. Logically the 7.3 or 5.9 was my next choice as far as reliable motor is concerned. I shy'd away from GM even though they have and awesome motor because of their IFS since I had plans to lift it 12" and run 44"s. After I bought the truck, I loved how it rode and the great fuel mileage and decided not to do that . Plus I like to go fast now too...

The paint scheme on my truck is "Platinum Edition" and unless you're from the South Western part of the US you probably haven't seen many, if any since only 2,000 were made and they were only offered in the SW part of the US.

 

I hate to hijack this guys thread so I'll just say cool truck and glad to hear u got the 7.3 .

 

Back on topic ,
Did the web address help any ?
If not I can look around a little to see what's around here .
Don't know if you want to come this far for a truck ,but I guess if u can save enuff money it would be worth it.

 

I just returned one the other day and got a magnum instead (I wanted the cummins, but the payments were high because the miles were too high for the loan company to put me into a 5/6 year loan. A 1999 with 90,000 miles. Long bed, quad cab, 4wd, leather. It may still be there, they wanted $17k for it. It was at Spradley Chevrolet in Pueblo, Colorado. They may still have it.
