I picked up a 2003 Chevy Silverado 2500HD Duramax Diesel today. Crew Cab, shortbox, cloth interior, LS package. It's stock other than the bug shield, tonnue(sp?) cover, and chrome along the sides. Just turned over 55,000 miles during the test drive. 
It's got a few scratches but black shows scratches worse than any other color! This thing will pull 6 sleds better than my Blazer would pull 2. 
Before someone asks about the goofy looking front bumper, the previous owner had a snowplow hooked up so he had to cut the bottom plastic part of the bumper to get the plow to hook up on the pickup. Tow hooks and a sort of skid plate underneath are also missing but the dealership gave us $250 off the pickup to cover the price of the missing pieces. So I gotta order those pieces sooner or later. Chrome door handles, and a chrome grill insert are definitly going to be added later also. Going to get a chip sooner or later also for better MPG and more torque!
