Default Looking to buy a truck.

Hey everybody im lookin at buying diesel. My dad has had his cummins for years and its still running strong with 200k on it. I have really liked the 01-04 chevys for a long time but i dont know much about the duramax. Im wandering what kind of issues i should be watching out for. Whats the life span on them? I found one i like with 170k on it and they want 6500. What issues should i watch out for? Any advice is good advice and will be greatly appreciated. Also what kind of gas mileage does everybody get and what are options to increase the mileage? Thanks again Aj

The one thing you'd need to look out for with an LB7 is the injectors
