Finally got tired of getting stuck all of the time in my 2000 Chevy 2 wheel drive so I upgraded to a 2006 Z71. Fully loaded and only 66K miles on it.

and you will continue to get stuck if you don't change those tires out to mud tires

I plan on changing them to something with a lot more grip. The last 2 years we hunted Caddo Lake Wildlife Preserve and only backed of the road to be out of the traffic. Not really stuck gust could not get enough traction to move. Just set there spinning.

Good lookin pickup.
As long as you don't go looking for trouble those tires will get you a long ways in a lite 4x4 pickup! Have an '06 with the 5.3, been a great motor/vehicle. Replaced a water pump and a battery and belt and that is it with over 170k on the clock. Gets 19-20 mpg. Enjoy.
Nice truck. Great find with that kind of mileage.

You did good! I would have been happy to sell you my Suburban that has 322,000 miles on it. Why didn't you check with me first?
