Got another G

Decided it was time to get a G500 since we had an addition to the family earlier this year.  This is a 2000 with 69k miles and has a few Brabus accessories.  It has been very well maintained so I have just a few small tasks to make it perfect.

 Best of all, the wife likes it!

Re: Got another G

Congrats! That is a pretty truck. The 18 inch wheels will give you a lot of tire options, too. Very nice find. Time to baseline it and do fluids.

Re: Got another G

Thanks! Yes I'll be starting the fluid flush this weekend. I'm encouraged that the truck has a good service record but I'll feel better knowing what is going into it.

The 460 is a great truck. Always cranks and never lets me down.

Re: Got another G

It is cheap insurance and good piece of mind. The 2000 model year G is considered to be one of the best to own...So good job finding a clean truck.

Yes I think so. I believe I've seen one like it before. We don't have front plates in AL so I might remove it this weekend and throw it in the For Sale section.

Thanks everyone!
