Mikelly Posted April 3, 2004 Share Posted April 3, 2004 Yup, 98 Silverado 4X4 3door Z71 package. It is loaded with everything except the leather interior. I'm very pleased with it overall. It is getting 17mpg so far, and I plan to install a tonneau cover immediately to aid in furtheringthe mileage! I do have a coolant leak issue, although it is in the catch container, not the motor. I can fill the overflow catch container and have the radiator topped off and within two days the container is empty... However, the radiator never gets low... I do see evidence of coolant leak on a hose fitting, and it may be steaming out at tha location, but I plan to flush the coolant system and change the Tstat anyway, so I'll address this fitting at the same time! THe thing has a TON more torque than the other truck, and with 5 years newer styling, it sure is much more comfortable! If it ever stops raining, I'll clean it up and take some pics! I already installed my MP3 player... Nice speakers came in the truck, so I'll leave that part alone! I ended up giving them my 93 GMC stepside low rider with 262K miles on it and $10K in cash. So I think overall it was a fair deal... My truck needed a ball joint for sure, and was getting tired, had an oil pan & trans pan leak... Trans was getting iffy and would have needed attention at some point! Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JKDGabe Posted April 3, 2004 Share Posted April 3, 2004 Look at all those "!". I'd say you're happy! Good for you! Let's see some pics! I still can't find a truck! And I'm in Texas! This is the truck capital of the world! (I'm just not willing, or able, to pay stealer prices) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
