Considering buying an 02 Chevy 2500HD LT 4x4 6.6 Duramax

Postby 2500SUPERMAX [OP] » May 31 2011, 3:03am

02 chevy 2500hd lt 4x4 6.6 duramax lt package 110xxx miles 4x4 black leather seats heated front seats dual power seats bed liner short wheel base 17" mt wheels w/ mickey thompson's very clean inside and out. everything the same as my 2000 6.0 only less chrome my rims are nicer and bigger no bed rails and no box cover and mine is gray, just changed the oil in mine and looked at the mileage and i have the same mileage. you think it would be worth it to go get the duramax? the guy is now in the oil fields and will buy something nicer with all the money he'll get so he just wants to get rid of it. priced very very low.

Man, if he's eager to sell you may end up getting a very good deal. I'd definately jump on a good D-max offer. One of the best -- no... THE best -- engine/drivetrain combo around.

Get it!
Marine because.

i been reading and the 01 and 02 was not the best years to get one with the injector problem. how many miles can you put on the OEM injectors before needing to replace them? and if you put in aftermarket ones will they last longer?

When the OEM injectors fail on the early-generation DMAX, it's really pricey to get them fixed- something like $3000-$5000. However, if they get replaced, then you should be set for the rest of the life of the truck. I would make darn sure that they've been replaced, before you buy it.
