Thank you in advance. | Get an '06 with the LBZ...good power and not as much emissions crap as the newer models...If you did get a newer model though there is a lot of aftermarket stuff out there that will disable or delete emmissions crap. If there are gauges on the truck then it may have had a tuner which could be bad if used in the wrong manner without the right upgrades...There are alot of guys on here that know 100 times more than I do so I'm sure they'll chime in.
They all have good power and are good motors but I personally have and have heard very good things about my model truck.
