am i crazy for considering a 2004 yukon xl 6.0 engine with 400,000 klm on it? that is 250K miles.

they claim all highway.

i can get it for $4500. Interior is in great shape, fully loaded.

While the GMT800s are pretty well-built and reliable, they can become money pits as they age. I wouldn't do it. If someone offered to GIVE me a truck with that kind of mileage, I'd probably still pass.

to many miles for that price. Any ten year old vehicle will need another $1000 to 2000 in repairs. If your in the rust belt it will need all new brake lines and fuel lines. Its a repair bill waiting to happen. Spend $7000 and get a better truck.
