This one? I'd say go check it out. Price is damn good for a 2500, especially if you prefer it in the LS flavor.

Texas truck should hopefully mean, NO RUST. Check for that. The miles are low and the price looks good but the eyeball needs to check it out. BUT and to me a big BUT is anything with AFM makes me gun shy. There are eliminator steps that you can take and plenty of threads here about that.

NO AFM on a 2500.

The 2008 is a lower towing capacity - 8600lbs

If it runs good go for it. That engine will run 300k

And yes, no AFM crap to deal with.

Even though I'm now in the market for a K2xx SUV for the wife, I was kind of thinking about going to check that one out, too. Just something for myself to play with... :D
