Well with the 49K leftover you can buy a lot of gas at least.

Thats how i look at it
hell new 1/2 tons are 32-33 k starting around here new
3/4 ton 40k on up
not a big Gm guy but old man owns a repair shop and said has a few work vans he works on with the 6.0 that has 220-240k miles on them
he said make sure i do a fuel pump if its never been done , gm are noted to just die fuel pump issues

We had a few in the fleet too. They where gas hogs but ran very well. The sealed front wheel bearings where a problem, and I think they can take out the break sensors also. Other then that and a defective hydraboost line, did not have any other problems.

Pretty much and they where pre Obama bailout so it did not quite leave such a bad taste in your mouth like it does now. The 5.4 Tritions we had where nothing to brag about either.
