2004 Gmc Sierra 3500 Dually Crew Cab Duramax Turbo Diesel Allison 4x4 on 2040-cars

 Up for auction is my 2004 (actually 2004.5) GMC Sierra SLT 3500 Duramax Dually 4 door crew cab, in immaculate Fine Silver Birch Metallic paint. Overall it is in exceptional condition. I am the 2nd owner. Here in CT, this truck does not need any emissions testing EVER due to GVWR. This was a CT truck for it's entire life, used to tow a camper around the country and move firewood. It was never a "work" truck. It is currently daily driven and gets consistently 15 mpg around town, a bit more on the highway. With a programmer on economy/tow mode, it would get more like 17 (I have never had a programmer on this truck). Clean title, and no known accidents. I am only selling because it is too much truck for my needs. I am looking to downsize to a more fuel efficient daily car and older pickup for the dirty work.

Injector balance rates checked out good about 6K miles ago. Balance rates were as follows:

Neutral (+/- 4 is the limit)

1: 1.2
2: -.2
3: -.9
4: 1.2
5: -3.4
6: -1.8
7: 2.8
8: 2.0

Drive (+/- 6 is the limit)

2: -.3

8: .2

It starts perfectly on even the coldest morning without the assistance of the block heater (started flawlessly when it was down to -9 degrees last month, first thing in the morning without the plug)

Extras:

- Factory rear trailer hitch receiver
- AEM Brute force intake
- front bug deflector (currently not installed)
- Block heater
- Tubular chrome side steps

Issues/Work needed:

- Driver's seat has the typical edge rip and non-functional heater elements. Rear seat bottom middle has a rip smaller than a penny
- Cracks in the Dually bed sides (common and nearly unavoidable - noted in pictures)
- Interior of the bed is dinged/dented from moving firewood, etc - can get some pics, but the bed is full of snow right now
- Slight surge at idle. Possible cause is the Fuel Pressure Regulator on its way out, and does not affect driveability and is only noticeable at idle - a brand new FPR is included but not yet installed - it cost roughly $300
- Rockers are JUST starting to bubble on each side in small locations, noted in the pictures. Otherwise the underside and frame are very clean with only minor scale. Factory paint is still present on the frame, with the exception of the rear kickup and spare tire carrier area. You can blame the lovely CT road treatments for the minor stuff starting...
- Front diff was going to be drained and filled with amsoil when I changed the oil next. Included is the necessary amsoil to drain and fill the front diff.
- Minor paint blemishes here and there typical of a 10 year old vehicle. Nothing too significant, as the pics show
- I would give the trans a full flush at the next service. It has never given me issues, but I'd like to replace ALL of the fluid, not just a drain and fill as I did which only gets 50% of the old fluid out

You will not be disappointed by this truck. It is extremely reliable and has been well maintained. It is ready to be daily driven. I currently have a loan out on this truck, so the title will be retrieved when payment is received in full (paypal, cash or bank check only - payment must clear at the credit union before I can get the title) Non-refundable $500 deposit due w/in 48 hours of auction ending - no exceptions. I will relist immediately if this is not met. Payment must be received in full within 7 days of auction end, at which point the vehicle must be picked up within 14 days of auction end.

This vehicle is being sold in as-is condition. It is encouraged that you set up a time to view in person before the bidding ends, to inspect for yourself. There is no warantee expressed or implied. This is a 10+ year old truck so I may have missed some normal wear and tear in its condition. I believe that I have fairly represented this truck to the best of my ability and knowledge.
