2006 Silverado ECLB Duramax 4x4. Cloth interior, all power, and came with all the service records, 1 owner truck.

Had to drive almost 3 hours to get it, every LBZ Duramax for sale around here is a crew cab short bed. Pics to follow.

Thanks, I've been looking for a truck with this configuration for over a year. It is replacing my 2004 Sierra single cab regular bed, with a V6 and a 5 speed manual. I was my Dad's, he used to say it was a "Man's truck", manual windows, manual locks, manual mirrors, manual transmission LOL

Crew cab is longer by almost a foot, in both overall length and WB. Every parking lot here only has what used to be "Compact" parking spots, and the "Compact" spots now only fit smart cars.:mad:

Also, I'm a single guy with my daughter moved out, so the back is more for storage and carrying stuff I don't want to put in the bed where it can get stolen, think dirt bike gear bag, duffle bag for a week's worth of clothes when I take off in the cold weather to hit up the desert in southern AZ/Baja area, tools, guns, etc.

I borrowed a friend's CCLB for a week, just not a good fit for my area. He says he always has to park in BFE at every parking lot (if there are any spaces available) and take 2 spaces, and hike in. We are also known as one of the very worst areas for bad drivers in the nation.

Sorry in advance if anyone is triggered by the BFE reference, I'm not too politically correct unless I happen to be working at the time. :rolleyes:

Hey, while I'm here, what fuel filter is best? I read a bunch of threads here that say Wix is the best, and a bunch of other folks saying Wix sucks and they had big problems. Every one of those threads is like 4 years old.

The "Change fuel filter" warning just came on this afternoon.

I run a GM filter at the stock location. Baldwin on my lift pump. Has worked great so far.


And lol at parking a CCLB is tough.... I specfically take my little ford ranger if I know I have anything to do in downtown that day. My LBZ is a land yacht.
Is Grapevine as real-estate limited as here? I thought everything is bigger in Texas? :p:cheers:
