[QUOTE="Peter V, post: 1016534, member: 72015"] Everyone knows buying a used vehicle is a hit or miss. Like most have stated, it boiled down to how well the vehicle was taken care of. Definitely ask for service records. My 08 came with a Carfax and PAGES of services detailing what dealership the truck spent its time. Although not comprehensive, it was somewhat reassurance to know it had "regular" intervals for servicing. I was also look at the build date and the older gen2s had issues with the spark plugs breaking off during changes. Many Gen2s can chime in. I was lucky as my build date was 03/08 so I had the revised heads and had no issues with the spark plug change. Once you do purchase one, make sure some of the first items on your list, would be changing out all the fluids, IE, oil, tranny, diff cases, etc... [/QUOTE]
