Iv'e been drooling ever since the LML came out, and for the past two years I have been kicking tires so much that the salesmen wouldn't even bother to chase me down. When PPEI broke the ECM, it was time to buy.

True, it’s not an enjoyable experience and the dealers always the one that gets the good deal, no matter what anybody says. But, it’s got to be done from time to time.

I do want them to make a little money on the deal, just not rape me, think they will take better care of you, if they make a little money in iffy situations!

After shopping for two years I knew what bottom dollar was on them. I was also satisfied with what they gave me on trade ins. I got the deal I wanted and didn't get raped so it's all good.

Correct, if you’ve shopped around for a while, you know what you’re going to have to pay. These things cost more than the first three homes I bought in my life, and they all appreciated. I know, I just bought a diesel F250 Platinum a couple weeks ago.

How do you like it? Let me know after the winter. Just saying?

I love it, it was the ride that got me out of the long General Motors streak. What about winter?
Starting and running for ten miles at 10 degrees mine would always start and would crap out and gel a at 50 MPH, running additives and leave me stranded.

My dealer experience was great. First, the salesman told me to hold off one month till the new Duramax came out. Then he asked me if I was a veteran. That saved me $1300. So I ended up with a brand new 2017 2500HD Duramax 4x4 crew cab LTZ for $58,000 out the door. Used ones on the lot were that much. With 22,000 miles and not one hick-up I can truly say I am a happy customer. And the 21 mpg in town and 26 on the highway doesn't hurt much either!

No doubt, you will love it. I bought a new '14 350. It's without a doubt, the best truck I've owned. The Platinum is the way to go too.. has all the cool shiat. Love's my heated steering wheel in the winter, and the cooled seats in the summer. :)
