Hello everyone,

I'm new to the forum and the full size scene. I currently own a 07 Colorado but am looking at buying a full size. The one I'm looking at is a fully loaded 09 2500 with a lift kit and 143 000 kms. It has the 6 litre engine as well. They are asking for 25 000$ and I was wondering if you guys think this is too much for this truck with the kilometers it has. Any input is helpful.

If you could post pictures of the truck (exterior, interior, under hood) that would help alot! also if you feel like it underneath just to check for damage really, looking forward to seeing it!

I'll post some pics of it later.
I had a question about the fuel tank size. I was wondering how often you guys fill the tank on a normal month, like no real big road trips, and how much it usually costs?

It is a fairly small 26 gallon tank. Mine isn't a daily driver as of right now but when I do drive it for a few days seems to not move much. I assume you have the 6.0 Gas V8, it doesnt have great fuel economy (10-15 depending how heavy your right foot is and gears) and Lift/bigger tires wont help that! But having the 6 speed auto will help get better MPG. Keep in mind I have the 6.0 Cast Iron block without the active fuel managment. If you have the aluminum block with the AFM then you will get better MPG to a degree do to 4 cylinder mode. If it has 3.73 or 3.43 opposed to my 4.10 gears it will also get better MPG
