Bout tree-fiddy.

"I told you not to give that Lochness monster no tree fiddy" LMAO

MY Yukon has 165k and she still runs strong...I do notice some piston slaping when she is real cold and I start moving without letting her warm up...but other then that no problems at all...

Dude, if you're getting it for a good price, I'd scoop it up. Do a complete flush of the tranny and fill it back with Royal Purple = 14 qts. I'd roll it, especially if the body is good and everything else seems fine.

I don't think that's a bad price for an '05 I paid $16 for mine with 89k miles on it.

I would change all the fluids, but do NOT do a Tranny flush. If it has not been done in the past or recently, you will have problems after the flush, especially after 155K miles.

x2 don't flush a 155k tranny bro, you are taking on high risk doing that. Just change the fluid.

I would say it's decent. I got mine for $8k, it's an 02 but had over 60k less miles.

Same here, I got my 02 with 90k for 7800. Granted it's a 2002, but there's not a HUGE difference in the vehicles either. I don't have efans...

Properly changing the fluid would be a complete flush.........why would you not want to do a complete flush?
