Really excited to post this, past Saturday picked up a fresh from Texas (right off the trailer), 2005 Suburban Z71. I have been looking for a good used truck for my wife for a while. This thing is CLEAN! The rear of Suburbans past the axle, usually rust. This is spotless. Entire frame is factory paint and gorgeous. The picture below of the wheel and tire should show those of you familiar with GM trucks what I'm talking about. Frame behind the fender liner is usually rusty. Clean and black here!
Miles are high, but you do not find trucks this clean anymore. For the price, I can dump a junkyard 5.3, rebuild the trans and many other things and still be ahead. 200k on the clock, motor is quiet, trans shifts well -- fluid looks real good. It is going to get the full suite of maintenance items including anything needed, replaced.
Gorgeous Bermuda Blue color with Tan interior. First order of action, getting it oiled.
Long live the GMT800s. More pics will come once I get it home and start going through it.
