LQ9 isn't a diesel. That's way high mileage for that tank with a gas motor. I personally wouldn't do it by of the transmission wear and that front iFS system is probably pretty rough too.

Yeah there has to be something wrong with it or he knows its gonna die soon. I'm hustling hard for a nice 2500HD but I would never get a workhorse that worn out

I assume he swapped to the LQ9? Because all of the HDs came w/ the LQ4.

Personally I wouldn't do it, the 200K would worry me...but honestly that truck is still worth quite a bit more than your car even w/ the 200K.

Depends if its his DD. wont do the job stuck in the driveway with a busted trans.if you could get some cash on top of the trade (around 1000 to freshen up the motor) then maybe it's a good deal
