    No service records, assume nothing has ever been touched.


    All I can say is do your due dilligence. Have it checked out by someone competent, sample all the oils and coolant, run it on a chassis dyno if you can, full ECM download etc etc. Once you do all that, then decide if the truck is worth it.

    Not the best truck Pete ever made. Imo they were a junky truck. I was never happy with the ‘04 that i drove. Build quality just wasn’t there.
