I've been looking for a "new" used truck recently, and have decided to focus on '99-06 GM Silverado / Sierra, based on various inputs. Right now, I have located 2 local trucks to look at this weekend. Both are extended cab 4x4, with similar trim packages. One is a 2003 GMC Sierra 1500 SLT with 5.3L gas engine / automatic trans and Quadrasteer, 194K miles, asking price ~$8K. Carfax has a couple of minor fender-benders, service records showing trans rebuilt around 100K, cluster replaced (twice), a few other small items. Other is 2003 Chevy Silverado 2500HD LT with Duramax diesel / Allison trans, 219K miles, asking price ~$7K. Carfax has a couple of minor fender-benders, service records showing a few other small items.
Pros and Cons of each? I plan on using whichever truck I choose as as an occasional daily driver and general utility usage, even if the "winner" is neither of these two.
Thanks in advance.
