Hi - New here!
My wife and I have been looking for a camping truck (any truck really, not necessarily an Avalanche) and something we can take on vacation a couple times a year and fit 3 kids in. Occasional furniture purchases, home depot runs, etc. 4-5K miles a year at most.
We found an '04 Z66 w/ 127K miles that is super clean inside and out for $6K. It's the best price in our area of any truck in as good a condition with as few miles. Carfax/Autocheck look good minus having 4 owners (which could easily have been the same person leasing, buying and paying off the truck. The reports count each of those title transactions as a separate owner). It's been an Arizona / Idaho truck it's whole life.
I plan on having the truck inspected by a reputable mechanic, but these aren't super popular around here. Are there any problem areas I should ask him to pay close attention to? I know the brake lines are one.
Thanks for any help!!
