Also Tiresmoker you might want to put in the latest for the Maliboost.

A week ago Monday at my suggestion, Kurt bought a 2010 Silverado for $2300. It’s a 2WD Work Truck with 170k miles and the 4.3 V6. This truck had been for sale for 11 weeks and he was asking $2900.

This truck needs work: broken windshield, slight coolant leak, blown out driver seat airbag, TPMS ...
