Very popular "heavy half ton"  basically a half ton with 3/4 ton suspension.  Truck runs very strong and does not smoke, I believe engine may have been rebuilt, but I'm not 100% sure, I believe this because it runs really great with no smoke, and has 193500 miles on it.  The transmission was replaced and is a heavy duty 700 r4 transmission, shifts very smooth. There are a few "dings" and scratches on the body, but nothing major, truck is very good looking, paint is not peeling or rusted.  The strip on the sides was painted black with "bumper and trim" paint, it peeled in a small spot.  It is a strong truck and designed to tow, my plan was to add an "adda leaf" and lift it in the front but we need something bigger for our growing family, otherwise I would keep it 

Pros: 
Ac Recharged (put on a custom ac switch, GM switches seem to burn out fast)
New radiator (from NAPA)
Transmission Cooler relined and replaced from low mileage suburban
New Battery
Newer transmission
Interior is in great shape
Bedliner sprayed in
Tow Package
Strong running 5.7L v8 (doesnt smoke)
Replaced Winshield Wiper Fluid motoe
30-40% tread on BFG 10 ply tires with 17" escalade wheels
Dual Exhaust that sounds great
Very clean engine

Cons:
Check engine light comes on after a while on highway (mechanic said it is from 02 sensor, I don't have smog here so I never worried about it)
ABS light is on and ABS acitvates every once in awhile during braking ( mechanic says abs system is fine and cant figure out problem)
Rear window is black plexiglass and taped in, its effective and rear window is cheap, looks good from outside but you can see tape on isdie (at least its Steelers Tape!)
Could use new shocks
Leaks a small amount of transmission fluid
Needs center caps for wheels

GM Issues Four New Recalls For 90,000 Vehicles

Fri, Jun 6 2014

One day after releasing an internal report that found a pattern of "incompetence and neglect" within the company, General Motors announced four more recalls that affect 89,126 vehicles. One of the recalls affects 31,520 vehicles that may contain a defect that could prevent airbags from deploying in a car accident. GM said it was aware of at least one crash in which a vehicle occupant sustained an injury because the airbags didn't deploy when they should have. The company said it was aware of other crashes that were similar in nature, but it is not yet known whether they're related to the condition, in which the shorting bar inside the driver's airbag may occasionally contact the airbag terminals. If the car and terminals are touching each other in a crash, the bags will not deploy. Vehicles from the 2012 model year are affected by the problem, and they include the Buick Verano, Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic. GM has conducted two previous recalls for this condition involving 7,116 cars. GM is also recalling 57,512 models of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 2014 GMC Sierra 1500 and 2015 Silverado HD, Tahoe and Surburan, as well as the 2015 GMC Sierra HD, Yukon and Yukon XL models because their radio control modules may not work, and thus prevent certain audible safety warnings. Certain models of the 2013-2014 Chevrolet Spark and 2013 Buick Encore are being recalled for a different airbag problem, which could prevent airbags from deploying properly during a crash. And 33 2014 Chevrolet Corvettes are being recalled for yet another airbag problem, in which an internal short circuit could disable the airbags. So far in 2014, General Motors has issued 34 separate recalls that affect approximately 15.9 million vehicles – more than the company has sold in the past five years combined. GM Announces Four Recalls DETROIT – General Motors today announced three safety recalls and one non-compliance recall, all of which were reported to the NHTSA on Thursday, June 5, 2014. In all cases, customers will receive letters from GM letting them know when they can bring their vehicles into a dealership, where all repairs will be performed free of charge and courtesy transportation would be provided as needed.

GM pauses 3.0-liter turbodiesel production due to a supplier shortage

Mon, Aug 30 2021

General Motors confirmed it has temporarily stopped taking orders for trucks and SUVs equipped with the 3.0-liter Duramax turbodiesel six-cylinder engine. It blamed the last-minute pause on a supplier-related shortage. Website TFL Truck first reported the news, and a representative from General Motors quickly confirmed it. The spokesperson explained the issue is due to a "temporary part shortage" and added that production will resume "as soon as possible," meaning the Duramax engine (which is called LM2 internally) is not going away permanently. Additional details are not available, so we don't know if the issue is related to the ongoing chip shortage. Rather than delay deliveries and create a backlog, General Motors is reportedly asking its dealers to encourage buyers who want a turbodiesel engine to instead select either the 5.3-liter V8 or the 6.2-liter V8, depending on the model selected. Both are gasoline-powered units. There's no word yet on when Duramax production will resume. The shortage affects several models, including Chevrolet's Tahoe, Suburban, and Silverado 1500 and GMC's variants of these trucks. Cadillac's Escalade is temporarily diesel-less as well. Heavy Duty variants of the Silverado and the Sierra are not affected because they're powered by a different Duramax engine with eight cylinders. Motorists seeking a full-size SUV powered by an efficient turbodiesel engine are temporarily out of options because the Tahoe/Yukon and the Suburban/Yukon XL had the segment to themselves. The Duramax was surprisingly popular, too: in May 2021, GM Authority reported that the turbodiesel straight-six represented 8% of Suburban sales and 6% of Tahoe sales. Installed in a rear-wheel-drive Tahoe, the engine returns 21 mpg in the city, 28 mpg on the highway, and 24 mpg in a combined cycle, figures that make the body-on-frame behemoth more efficient than the unibody, front-wheel-drive Chevrolet Blazer that's 20 inches shorter and approximately 1,700 pounds lighter.
