His name is 'Jim'!!
In my quest to own just about every type of gm truck, I present my newest!
His name is 'Jim'!! A 2000 gmc. 4.3 5 speed. Stock as a rock drivetrain. 168,000 km's. 105,000 miles for you US guys. Fibreglass lid and original box liner. Came with a topper too. Sold it already. Corroded factory wheels and michelins that will be replaced soon with stock steel rims. Tight as a drum. No rattles, no squeeks!! We're thinking it's original paint. No evidence of a re-paint! Two chips in the paint is all. A perfect around the Island truck!! Bought for 4500 canuck bucks. That's about 3600 US dollars. The po had tried selling it for 6 months. No takers! Figured it was the 5 speed people didn't like. |

Re: His name is 'Jim'!!
That's a good looking ol GMC. 105,000 miles is low for it's age. Roughly 7,000 per year average. Must have been owned by some older gent. Plans for it?
I am a GMC man too.

Re: His name is 'Jim'!!
No real plans.
Tune up coming up plus some new parts. Plugs, filters, mafs, new belt. Maybe drop it a little. As for the po's, who knows! I'm a senior citizen myself (64 and counting)!! |
