Great site!I wish I would of known about this a month ago.I bought a 01' 1 ton dump a few months ago,put a couple of 1000 miles on it when it stalled 30 seconds after start up.Just cranked over.I had it towed to the dealer where they replaced the pump(47,122 miles).A couple of weeks later,the same problem.This time they replaced all 8 injectors(47,578 miles).Ive always been a chevy guy and have wanted a duramax for a while but am having second thoughts.Any one have any info 0n this warranty extention I've read about in this site (04039).For the first time after 5 chevys/GMCs,I,m considering dumping this while its within the 5 years and buy a powerstroke.Hopefully mine falls within that extention.Any help would be appreciated,I don't know if I could take the embarassment of being seen in a Ford. Thanks,Mike

I would keep it since you already have a new pump and injectors.

Thank You GMCSID.I appreciate the responce.I'll probably give it to the fall to see if it gives me any more problems.I bought this truck to plow and its been in the shop for every considerable storm,includind the 24" blizzard we had.I'm going to give it one more shot but I can't justify the money if its not going to be reliable.We'll see.Thanks again.Mike
