We are nearing a final purchase of a new 2004 GMC Sierra
2500HD crewcab shortbox SLE with Duramax/Allison.
This is our first new vehicle, and we'd like to keep
it for a looooooooong time, so we want to do everything
in our power to keep the vehicle looking and functioning
well, right from the get go. Thus, we plan to
immediately do the following:
1) Get the vehicle rustproofed-- any
experiences/suggestions in regard to various
rustproofing companies and/or factory rustproofing?
2) Have the bed lined with spray-on liner.
The local dealer handles "Permatech"-- any thoughts?
Soon afterwards, we'd like to get an aux fuel tank,
tonneau cover and nerf bars.
Do you have any other suggestions? Synthetic tranny oil?
Synthetic motor oil? What other things can you do to
"baby" the truck? Anything you WISH you would have
done from the start?
Thanks,
Paul.
