So first I have to say thank you all for all that you have contributed to this forum over the years. I cannot believe how much incredible info is at my fingertips. They are all 4WD.
The silver 06 Yukon with 75k miles is going to be for my wife and will be replacing her 15' Honda Pilot. (I absolutely hate that thing!) It too is pristine with the exception of the obvious!.
The white 05 Z71 is what I picked up for my brother in law and you guessed it....it has 75k miles on it!! I honestly do not know how I came across Colorado NBS trucks with the same low mileage but then again...that is why they are in my possession!
What I want to point out is that while I have saved vehicles that were complete wrecks...I am not ambitious about that kind of work anymore. When I do uni-body wrecks I typically pull in the tolerance numbers tighter than how they left from the factory but like I said....I don't want to deal with that anxiety anymore so I opted for the easy fender benders that appeared to be very well taken care of from the beginning.

You know that crazy guy that lives out of town and has a bunch of cars in the front yard, that’d be me with GM suv’s if I had the land lol
Hilarious! Me too.....If you look at the pic of the 03 on the trailer you will see my house in the background. I do have a 3 car garage but I also have 2 other vehicles! Problem is that as you can see my neighbors are right on top of me and I live in a hoitey toitey neighborhood that REALLY frowns upon this kind of stuff. In fact...I am probably the only one here that actually gets his hands dirty for a living. It gets really difficult because I can ONLY do work inside my garage with the doors shut and it gets to be a pain jockeying cars around all of the time.

Aside from just fixing the 03....my first mod was the electric fan conversion. I managed to score the complete set up with harness from an 05 Yukon with only 60k. I stripped and cleaned the harness and added new wire loom. Unfortunately I didn't get the pic of the final product on the harness. I have to go back to the yard to get the pins out of the donor ECU and then get a tuner to activate them.
