2004 Chevy Silverado 2500HD – 6.0L Gas Clean Title

Solid, reliable 3/4-ton truck that runs great and has never let me down. The 6.0L gas engine is one of GM’s best, simple, durable, and known for reliability. This has been a dependable truck for Home Depot runs and occasional trips towing our side-by-side, bikes, or rafting trailer.

Pros / Recent Work

-Rebuilt transfer case with less than 10,000 miles. The original failed due to a common GM issue from this era where a small hole develops and slowly leaks fluid until failure. The rebuilt unit has addressed that problem.

-Transfer case actuator replaced, another common wear item on these trucks. Works perfectly.

Aftermarket Android head unit installed with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for music and navigation.

-Backup camera installed with the stereo upgrade (currently not working, see cons).

-6.0L V8 gas engine – known for reliability and easy maintenance.

-Fiberglass tonneau cover, keeps tools and gear dry and protected.

-Seats 6 people thanks to the front bench seat configuration,great when you need the extra passenger capacity.

-Trailer brake controller installed (relatively new).

Cons / Things to Know

-ABS light comes and goes. Hasn’t affected driving, so I haven’t addressed it.

-Emergency brake doesn’t hold well, and the brake light sometimes stays on briefly after releasing it.

-Backup camera needs replacement. Cameras are inexpensive ($30–$60) and usually take about an hour to install. I may replace it if I get time before the truck sells.

-Trailer brake controller currently not functioning. Likely a ground wire issue, but I haven’t looked into it yet.

-Tires have decent tread but are older and starting to show some sidewall cracking. They should be replaced soon.

-Interior shows normal wear for a truck of this age, mostly on the driver’s seat (see photos).

-Typical Chevy paint chipping in some areas.

-Oil pressure sending unit is going out, so the gauge sometimes reads inaccurately. When it reads correctly, pressure is in the normal range.

Other Info

-Clean title in hand

-No trades

-Not interested in vehicle report scams, codes, or similar requests common on KSL.

Overall, this is a dependable heavy-duty truck with a strong drivetrain and plenty of life left in it.
