Question 2001 Duramax INFO ??

What is your opinion on a 2001 chevy silverado duramax 220,000 miles. Injectors replaced. No leaks. Only issue is temp sensor. Should I buy for 9000 ????

check out the front end good for play or slack. I have to rebuild mine about once a year. otherwise if you think that it's in good shape it might be worth that. I had a car salesman friend book an 01 cclb 4x4 w/ 230k mi. not long ago and he said it was worth 8000 or so depending on condition.

i'm hard on everything.I drive about 25,000 miles a year, all of the roads in this part of the country are rough, so that doesn't help, but i drive in pastures a lot also and i have a ranch hand bumper replacement on the front. All of this helps to accelerate the rate of wear on the parts. I have moog lifetime warranty parts in the whole thing now so at least i don't have to buy the parts now.
