You really hit on the key thing about these trucks- Get Educated!!!! This truck has some red flags that I suspect would just lead to the owner saying "I bought it like that" or "the previous owner said" This website is our only reliable source of information about these trucks. We don't have a Corvette registry and meticulously kept GM records. What is really scary is the info that gets put out on the Facebook portion of this website. I feel bad for how uneducated some owners are. It's not their fault but I've caught posts with 5 or 6 wrong comments back to back. Scary indeed.
