They are good trucks for sure just like any other with the right maintenance and care. I may be mistaken but I thought only manual transmissions came in high output but someone will chime in to help. It was made in 2003 but is a 2004 truck which I believe is the early 04. Check the sticker on the side of the engine to see. If it is an early 04 it will have 305hp/585tq I believe. If its 325hp/600tq its an 04.5. I am not a fan of Banks anything and would personally get rid of it except for the intake horn. My suggestion is get new tuning (Smarty, Edge, Quadzilla etc.) are good. Just change the oil regularly, injectors should be good for a while, some exhaust manifolds had problems with cracking on the 03-04 models, get a FASS or Airdog lift pump as soon as possible, other than that just regular maintenance and you should be good! Sounds like a sweet truck man.

With respect to the banks six-gun...
I have one on my 04 and fought with the thing for nearly two years; just recently I upgraded the firmware in the tuner and PDA and finally it works as advertised. Mileage went up, a lot less black smoke and it doesn't hang all the time; easy upgrade, check on banks site to see if your're up to date.
If I did it all again, I'd probably go with a smarty and some guages...
