For sale is my 2003 Silverado Extended Cab
It has just over 103,000 miles and runs excellent. Mechanically the truck is in great shape, I have no issues with it at all. The Check Engine light is on, I checked the code and a knock sensor needs to be replaced. Back in December I had dual exhaust put on, it's single into the Magnaflow muffler and dual out the back. It has K&N cold air intake, but I have the OEM intake, as well. The windshield needs to be replaced, but doesn't impede drivablility in anyway as the damage is concentrated on the passenger corner. The air conditioning works excellent, I had it recharged almost a year ago. Had new tires put on 7,000 miles ago, they're Nitto Terra Grappler AT's, 265/75R16, still in awesome shape, I'd say the tread is about 80% or better.
The pickup looks great, the body is in good condition, the interior is in good condition. No stains or odors inside, never been smoked in, since I've owned it.
When I bought the pickup it was wrecked, it had been hit in the front passenger corner, and had frame damage. That being said, it has a salvage title. I had everything repaired, and you cannot tell it was ever wrecked. Aside from the body damage, I had all the front end parts in that side replaced (i.e. idler arm, upper control arm, pitman arm, ball joint, etc.). The pickup drives great, there's not noises, rattles, it doesn't pull to either side, just a good running, driving truck.
Some options are:
Bose premium sound
Power driver seat
Power windows/locks/mirrors
Center Console
Driver Information Center
Spray-in Full Metal Jacket bedliner
16" alloy wheels
4 wheel drive
Z-71 Suspension package
I'm not selling the truck because I have any problems with it, I'm just ready to buy a newer one.

GM warning 800,000 owners that their cars may need oil changes more frequently than they say
Fri, 05 Apr 2013The days of changing your engine oil every 3,000 miles are long gone thanks to most cars having automatic oil monitoring systems, but about 800,000 General Motors vehicles apparently have incorrect monitoring software that is leading to premature engine component wear. According to Autoweek, certain 2010-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain models equipped with 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines could be going too long in between oil changes resulting in a higher-than-normal number of warranty claims for the engine's balance chain. The balance chain links the balance shaft to the crankshaft, and a worn one can produce higher noise levels.
As a fix, GM dealers will be reprogramming the software for the monitors in an effort to reduce the interval between oil changes, which varies based on driving habits and conditions. Through February 2015, the software update will be done at no cost to vehicle owners, but since this is not a recall, after that point, it will be up to the discretion of dealers as to whether or not they will charge for the service. What isn't immediately clear is whether GM plans on giving assistance to out-of-warranty customers who are experiencing engine issues from the worn chain.
Expect greater differentiation in GM's next-generation SUVs
Thu, 03 Jan 2013General Motors says its next-generation Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, GMC Yukon and Cadillac Escalade models will offer shoppers improved interior differentiation. Car and Driver recently caught up with Chris Hilts, GM's creative manager of interior design, who said that the cabins will all feature unique instrument panels, consoles, center stacks and switchgear moving forward. Apparently GM is now aware that consumers may be bothered by the fact that today's $85,000 Escalade has effectively the same cabin as a $45,000 Tahoe. Hilts says SUV buyers want more refinement than their pickup purchasing counterparts - and those same buyers also want their SUVs to have more exterior differentiation between the company's Silverado and Sierra pickup lines. Shocking.
That all sounds good to us, but we've heard this song and dance before. GM made big waves about how different the new-for-2013 Silverado and Sierra would look from each other, but judging by what we've seen so far, GM's stylists are painting in shades rather than with the full spectrum.
