Before talking about the Sierra, I did sell the 03 Silverado 2 months ago. After 7 years of ownership, rust taking over, plus having an offer I couldn't turn down, it was time to sell.

And....

A week or so later I found this one on craigslist. Went and looked at it, turned out to be everything I was looking for except the price. Tried negotiating but walked away that day leaving my offer with him; and long story short we ended up making a deal 2 months later.

About the Sierra; 2007 classic SLT LBZ Graystone Metallic, 70k miles, two previous owners making me the third. Comes with 2 way remote starter, Leer topper, Bedrug, and other grandpa accessories.

Damn dude, nice score! Didn't think we'd see the day that you sold the silvy though, but it was for the best.

Can't wait to see how this one turns out. Congrats Kyle.
 
Truck has had this BEDRUG and topper since new, there is not one scratch in the bed and literally looks like the day it was painted.

No problem, It had 109k miles on it, sold it stripped down and stock looking for $11,000. Then I got $2000 for the preds and nittos from another guy. In the end $13,000 total.
 
Nice! I have mine listed at 17, and won't take a dime less. 68k miles.
That's exactly the info and reassurance I needed!
 
Nice, the pics look great dude.

And I'm glad you got a lot out of the silvy when you sold it!

Thats some low miles, plus yours has more done to it than mine did, and probably doesn't have rust holes in the rockers. lol

I'm loving it so far, I just want to keep driving it :crazy: My first diesel, and first crew cab. Been only wanting one for 5+ years!
 
Once you go diesel you'll never want to go back to gas.
That's been my struggle for the past 2.5-3yrs with my 1500.

Best way I can describe it, is its like putting a condom back on after not using one for a year lol
 
Sad to see the 03 go but this looks like a clean truck and I know you'll build something sweet! 22x12s on 35s would be killer though IMO. :happeh:
 
Looks super clean !!! And you will not regret this purchase.

WOW! Can't believe you sold the 03, REALLY can't believe what you got for it, and LOVE the new truck! Plans sound great, gonna look awesome!
 
I would keep the camper around, because at least it's the nice looking one with solid glass down the sides, blends in nicely with the truck.

Plans listed sound great but do you plan on getting into the motor or tuning any? I'm sure Matt could help you out with that lol
