Looks nice. The wheels and nerf bar look like upgrades, so that helps.

 

If it is in good condition on the interior, looks pretty nice. The GMC's tend to be a bit harder to locate.

 

Assume you want that combination of cab/bed length... looks like a nice find.

Those are the stock wheels for that year

 

Looks like a good one Riggs, I had a white Z71 that year, one of the best trucks I EVER owned....Vortec Baby!

Getting tired of your truck? Looks like you've already got a bit of time/money into your '92.

 

Personally, if I were going to upgrade from your truck, I'd wait until I could jump right into an 800 series with at least a 5.3l V8. They'll just keep getting cheaper as gas prices go up.

my trucks old and tired.... it shows more and more every day..... plus i need a extended cab... and a truck that gets better than 7 MPG

[Guest Riggs]

[Guest Riggs]

Cool. It looks like a pretty good deal. And it would definitely be safer than a moped, with those crazy gals chasin' you around.

Looks like a nice truck, but that price seems pretty steep. I would offer $4k and no more, I'm guessing you'll get it if you have some patience.

 

That said, a '97 truck is no spring chicken either so I'd plan financially for some maintanence problems.

...and a truck that gets better than 7 MPG

 

 

Certainly understandable. Just keep in mind that if you do similar mods to the truck you're looking at (meaty tires, lift, etc.) then you'll be shooting yourself in the foot as far as gas mileage goes. I think the big question is this: do you really need/want another truck? And if the answer yes, is this truck enough of an upgrade over your current one to justify the purchase?

You have to keep your rims. I really like those. A friend of mine has them on his '93, and I think they're sweet. jmo
