[QUOTE="ddgermann, post: 134246, member: 3537"] That’s a very clean looking pick up Michael. Yes the paint is mint on it. Pretty clean under the hood too. Interesting that your got a rare one with the NA 6.5. That thing will run forever. Some of the Hummer guys have them in the older trucks and despite the weight and high mileage the trucks run on and on. My love for black takes real effort some days that’s for sure. Incredibly difficult to keep clean and looks dirty at the slightest smudge. Yes that’s a remote PMD from Rubber Duck in the US. It’s got a #7 chip in it which is really all the fuel that engine can handle with factory injectiors. Stock is #5 and #9 is the limit. You are 100% right about the glow plugs. The doghouse has to come out to get at them. I had them replaced when the intercooler was installed so I should be good for a while. My mileage is well.... let’s just say you don’t drive a Hummer if you care about fuel mileage. It averages about 12 MPG from what I can tell. It’s actually not bad on the highway if you keep it at 100 kph. It tops out at about 140-150 I think. Actually never tried to find out. It will cruise at 110 ok but really starts sucking the fuel from there up. Yes is is heavy. Each wheel and tire weighs close to 200 pounds. Those are CEPEK wheels that are one of 2 aftermarket wheels designed to carry the weight of the truck. They are aluminum but quite thick. The 40” tires are damn near as heavy as the rim. The truck is a pig but pretty capable off-road. I haven’t done too much with it but have climbed a few hills and tore up some bush and mud a few times.
