Well I wasn't expecting to start a build thread again so soon. Especially not one for a 2003 again but here goes.
Here is my current truck (I am trading in soon) 2015 GMC Sierra (build thread) Malaki 2015 Sierra Build
I got a phone call from my father that works at a dealership about this 2003 1500HD with only 135,XXX miles that he could get me for a good deal. So I went in and looked at it and took it home to test drive. It has it's flaws but they all are normal for what it is. It has a manifold leak, Rust on the rockers and a couple dents. Nothing that can't be fixed. Dad called me a couple days later telling me someone else was wanting to buy it so I made the decision to jump on it and take on the new adventure. Here are the pictures of when I first took it home.
The interior looks immaculate. It looks like the back seat has never been sat in.
Yeah they have some bad winter reviews, i was wanting them before i bought my falkens. They are good in deep snow, but that shushy ice thats usually on the road is where they will skate across the road. I had a set of timberland MT tires which were similar, took one snowfall to realize they needed to go.
The issues are usually with the mating surfaces and flange material/thickness. Cheaper ones tend to warp and then blow them out. But if you're planning on dumping it next year they wouldn't be too bad
