Ok so I just bought a Yukon that has 165k on it and it runs great! Just curious how many miles you guys have on your trucks and how strong the motors still are....mostly concerned about the 5.3L motor cause that's what I have.

I don't have the link for it, but there's already a thread on this subject. A lot of guys have over 250,000 plus, and running strong, including myself.

Got 133K on mine and doing fine. I need and expect it to last until at least 200K miles, as it will be passed down to younger daughter for her use in about a year's time.

I have a 2003 Tahoe Z71, the thing was hardly driven before I bought it...was exempt from emission inspection but anyway, bought it with 86,700 miles, now has 107,000 miles (from work, vacations, etc) work is 11,000 miles/year alone, sadly :/

wow some of you have some really low miles!! Is the 5.3 as good a motor as the "bullitproof" 6.0?

Lol, these are great motors, as long as they're maintained. I got the motor for what I consider a good deal. Came with harness and pcm. You can usually find 6.0's anywhere from $1000 on up. A few small things are missing on the new motor, but nothing major. I'm originally from Newark/Belleville, so that must really be north for you.

Just posted a 2004 with 25k miles for $8.5k I found at a local dealer. The low mileage and low price are interesting

I have 215,000 kms on my 2001 Yukon XL SLT. The motor has some issues. I don't plan on putting any more money into it.

193K on mine, put over 9000 miles on it since I registered it on August 18th.
Has the typical "lifter tick" for about 15 seconds when I first start it in the morning, but goes away quickly. Idles at about 35psi oil pressure, over 60psi when cruise is on at about 1800rpm.
