New (to Me) 06 Gmc 2500hd Dmax

[Wesley Brown]

So I just picked up my 06 GMC Sierra 2500HD 4x4 ExtCab, sbox with the Duramax/6 speed Allison combo. It feels like this was a long time coming, but this is my first true truck purchase as the El Camino doesn't really count.

 

I'll post some pics when I get a day where it's not pouring.

 

Anyone think I got a steal at $23,000 CDN + tax with 90,000 km because I can't believe how much truck prices have dropped in the last 2 months.

Thanks for all the welcoming words. Let's just say I'm stoked on this purchase, and here are some pics for all yall that wanted to see.

Now she still has the 245/75/R16s on her, but that'll go when I put some winter shoes on. Any suggestions? I was kinda thinking of fitting her with some Firestone Destination MT with winter studs, either 265/75/R16 or 285/75/R16. Now I won't say studs are a must but that's definitely influencing my decision. I think the summer choice is going to be a set of Toyo Open Country MT.

And here's a special pic of what happens when my 1/2 ton work truck kisses my 8 ton soil drill at work.

I have Michelin LTX A/Ts on mine in the stock 245/75/R16s. Bad a$$ in all weather conditions!
