When I bought my 8.1l crew cab in '01, they were just starting to gain popularity again. Most trucks on the lots were still EC's at that time. Still wish I had the '74 dodge dually crew cab with the 440 in it. haha - what a pig it was.

I feed a 8.1 liter. It's a 2005 chev crew cab long box one ton 100,000 km.Smartest decision I ever made.I was looking forever for a duramax like that,but they all wanted $20,000 or over, rightly so since everyone wants the LBZ pre emissions motor, I just use it for pulling and serves us perfectly she can drink all she wants lol

similar to mine, I have a 2005 1 tonne dually longbox extended cab, 120,000 km. I use it for recreational purposes only, I didnt think the fuel mileage was to bad. If I drive it relaxed I can get around 17 mpg on the highway empty, cruise set at 103-105. Hook up the camper and its closer to the 12 mpg driving the same way. If I get in a hurry its all bets out the window for mileage. If you wanna step on the gas she will burn it, but she does launch very nice from the lights. Best thing I did was change from 5-30 oil to 10-40. Had to add 2 liters between changes with 5-30, with the 10-40 I dont add between changes.
I whish mine was dually I scaled myself with 2 quads trailer it's 200 lb under each tire capacity thats 7500lb on rear end, yup the wife drives it to the dump an she's probably hitting the fun pedal to hard, so there's never gas iner when I jump in haha, I'll have to think about switching oil as I giver a liter here and there, it gets really cold here in winter or it used too, I heard there's an allowance from GM to use oil... Crazy

Nice truck! I sold mine. It was a great truck for the money, I'll never understand anyone buying a 6L vs a big knock
