Searching for a truck I may never find?

[Hay Dude]

I wouldn't worry about the DPF. I couldn't tell you if my 08 GMC 2500HD ever had to regen.

I heard the GM DPF’s were the most reliable.
I knows Fords was AWFUL. Had 3 of them.

Quick question, curious does that year truck have an exhaust brake? Also if your running it around locally I'd consider a banks monitor they have gone up in price unfortunately I mostly set mine to monitor my def, and regeneration I imagine continuous short cycling regen wouldn't be beneficial and there's very limited indication from GM when it is in regen besides sounds. plugs into obd port put in corner of pillar on dash it
looks somewhat professional, Lol I'm to cheap to buy an actual pillar mount. Best of luck with your new Duramax.

Haven’t bough it yet. He told me it might be sold and that he has an ‘07 3500 with plow and low miles, too for similar price.

Stay tuned….

For 19k and it checks most of your boxes, I'd be all over it

Sounds like a road trip is coming. Jon

Sounds like the dealer may have the exact truck (an 07 3500) that you are looking for. Hope its in as good a condition as the 09.

Yeah, now I have choices. Love choices, but I bet it’ll be hard to decide.
He says the ‘07 3500 has low miles and a utility body.

I don’t really like utility bodies, but I have to admit, it would be extremely practical to have all those easy-access tool cabinets.

Found this a few days ago, but the seller won’t respond!
I hate blue, but this shade of blue isn’t terrible.

But that truck has the emissions crap that you didn't want

Yes, it does.
Many of them have been deleted though.
So it never hurts to inquire about one as clean & affordable as that one.

Seems there's a few in your wheelhouse at dealerships on the equipment trader magazines I pickup occasionally at gas stations.
