Sweet find! When I look at used vehicles I take my scanner so I can read "Historical Codes".

You don't hear many stories where the dealer's customer actually comes out ahead on a deal! Congrats. Does it have the 5.3? How's the interior?

So do I. I have A creed scanner. Boy has it saved me a few time from buying JUNK :cool:

It had shift solenoid trans code and flex fuel sensor, multiple misfire codes. But that's all been fixed and cleared out of ECM. Only code is for flex fuel and dont care since im not stupid to run E85 in it
