i really was not looking for a diesel truck but the prices are so good right now like 21,500 for a 2005 with 21,000 miles on it. i had to go for a test drive. i was really blown away with the power and agility of a duramax, what a beast. it is still a tough decision to buy a diesel when i know nothing about them. but can you really go wrong with that price? any thoughts about the 2005 chevy 2500 diesel for a first time diesel buyer? thanks
If you liked it stock you should try it with an exhaust and programmer Diesels are dependable and long lasting. It will probably tow anything you currently have and anything you will purchase in the future. I love mine I had a gasser before and the difference is like night and day

If you use this for a everyday driver this truck will last forever. Programmers are good but don't over do it. The price sounds good, just make sure it not to good. Have a Carfax and a mechanic look at it. You cant go wrong with a GM. Good Luck on your purchase
