For the last few month's I've been checking out 96-98 K1500's and recently 2004 -2006 GMT800's.
Until last Saturday I had given up the search because the trucks were either rusty or overpriced(for my budget).
Saturday afternoon I checked Kijiji (the Canadian CL)- one owner, low mileage, no accidents, well maintained, "little rust" priced well within my budget 2006 Sierra 4x4. I phone the seller and he said I was the first reply having put the ad up 2 hours earlier. 45 minutes later I arrived looked under, over, around and then a short drive. The outer rockers were bad but the inners were solid. The fender lips were solid as well as the floor.
It's not perfect but is able to be saved at reasonable expense but with a good amount of my work(I love doing this kind of stuff as shown by the last 4 cars I've owned. I paid 1/8ith of the new retail price.
