Hey, I am thinking about selling my '04 silver 6-speed as I plan on getting a truck again and I already have my '69 goat for a project car. I have been super happy with it and it has close to 67K on it with NO trouble. I drive like an old man (never had a speeding ticket and watch the MPG gauge real close)so I have never had an issue, however given the fact that the LS1 and t-56 tranny are virtually buletproof that is no surprise. In fact, due to all of the highway driving I have done I have gotten a constant 29 MPG Highway mileage quite often.

I change the oil with Mobil 1 5W-30 and filter every 4-5K miles otherwise it has not needed anything.

Some of those who might be upset by the lower prices that the '04s are commanding probably paid over stick when new as many dealers were jacking up the prices for the first few months they came out. It was not until late in '04 that they were offering deep discounts to move remaining inventory, which is when I got mine :-)

Anyway, finding the used ones that have not been throttled on are far and few between, but the chassis are really well built so they're a great car overall.

In any event I think you will be really happy going with any of the '04-'06's.
