News of the Weird

got 130,000 miles on my 97 gmc z71. been pulling around anywhere from 5000 to 12000 pounds at least a couple times a week since i bought her new. 1 radiator, 1 powersteering hose, and oh yeah, brakes every 6 months or so! trucks been good to me. she does squat pretty good when loaded but, doesn't hurt the ride or scrape. i got a 2" lift on it. i tryed *air bags couple years ago but they blew out first week. thought about a helper spring but l like the ride.

i say ford and dodge make a good product too. just a matter of preference. cept with a ford when you do have a prob, get out ur checkbook. those things are HARD to work on.

i bought two 250 powerstroke diesels for my company in 06. wanted to keep the miles off my gmc. felt like she was getting old and i didn't wanna tear her up.bought a used 04 with 40k, lost the tranny second week. traded it for a 05 with 35k lost the tranny second week. next truck will be a duramax!
