Hi guys, I'm new to this site.. Last week I sold my '02 2500HD gasser to my father and bought a '03 Chev reg. cab 4x4, LS, duramax/ZF6spd, pewter in color. I couldn't be happier with my choice, it's what I've always wanted. Lucky for me, the airbox is the same as the '02 gasser, so my K&N was the first to go in, and I had the muffler cut off and straight-piped on Saturday.. vroom!
Anywho, my father likes my new truck so much that he just traded it in on a '03 just like mine, but got a base model instead of the LS, with the usual upgrades, and the dark metallic grey in color (didn't want to get confused on whose was whose!). He picks it up on Tuesday so I'll look forward to sharing info I learn here with him.
My work entails driving a 2002 GMC Savana 1ton extended cargo van (yes, 6.5 diesel) 300 miles a day, so I don't put many miles on my own personal truck.. I'm sure I'll participate alot in the 6.5 forum, too. The 6.5 has been a great motor for us, so far on the '02 we only have 90k miles on it, but climbing rapidly. The identical van it replaced (1997) is pushing 550k miles and still going strong, recently having had its original injector pump and transmission replaced. A little splash of gunk diesel treatment in each fillup seems to have helped the injector pump go a long way.
Anywho, I've already posted a few times and gotten good answers, this place is money well spent. I look forward to conversing with you folks! :D
