Entrepreneurs and fleet owners, who order the majority of these pickup trucks, are mainly interested in the payload capacity, the towing capacity and the weight of the vehicle. The capacities indicate if the truck will struggle to fulfill the required duties and wear out prematurely, while the weight tells how much you will have to pay to register the vehicle. In the province of Quebec, the "truck" replaces the "pickup truck" when the weight exceeds 3,000 kilos; consequently, the registration fees are higher. In addition, with a truck, users will have to perform comprehensive inspections before hitting the road and subsequent check-ups on a regular basis.

With that in mind, when you're looking to buy a truck or pickup truck for work, like a Chevy 2500 HD, you want to get the strongest vehicle there is under 3,000 kilos. So, when it's time to step on the scale, GM's Sierra/Silverado duo is a smart choice. With winter approaching, many snowplowers, for example, will choose one of these two pickups to install their snowplow on, while using the bed for carrying the calcium spreader. For these reasons, most new owners will register their vehicle before installing any accessories on it. Let's not kid ourselves: in the weight department, there's always a way to cheat... all the more so when you know the folks who operate the scale. Moreover, you can fill up the tank and install the running boards only after the weigh-in.

Our test model, a Silverado 2500 HD with diesel engine, is one of those vehicles that we purchase not with our hearts but with our brains. Who would want an end-of-the-run pickup truck that's being fully redesigned and soon released on the market (the 1500s will be

available first)? Perhaps the people who will make long-term calculations and manage to get a sweet deal. Or perhaps those who need to refresh their fleet as soon as possible. Anyhow, a lot of them would be surprised by its accelerations and handling.

As for the upgraded engine, it delivers more power (360 hp) as well as

impressive 650 lb-ft of torque. Paradoxically, this engine creates less pollution in the form of NOx and noise emissions. It burns fuel more efficiently while the reduced compression ratio mitigates the various noises and vibrations.

Furthermore, a revised version of the variable geometry turbocharger enhances the driving experience. Aerodynamic modifications to the thrusters have been made to efficiently channel the turbo power and to create an instant response (no turbo lag). This is good for a 0-to-100 sprint in less than 9 seconds. According to GM, the improved turbocharger also helps to reduce toxic emissions.

That's not all. The Duramax 6600 engine is also equipped with an intake air heater that reduces smoke and emissions during cold or light load driving. The engine therefore warms up faster.

Now the fine print...

We understand you are buying online, but with us you are not buying blind! We handwrite every single description. We provide 24+ high resolution pictures & we inspect and photo what you see and what you can't see. We'll also be glad to email you detailed, closeup pictures of any area you'd like to see more of. People ask us all the time what is the catch to our vehicles. They assume that the prices are low because there is something wrong with them. Nothing could be further from the truth! Our secret is simple...LOW OVERHEAD. We are an internet-only dealer. We do not maintain regular office hours or a large sales facility. We simply have a Mississippi bonded dealer's license, a storage lot, and a computer. Since we don't have dozens of mechanics, helpers, salesmen, secretaries, etc. on our payroll; we are able to sell at greatly reduced prices.

You will notice that we sometimes go with private auctions. Our reasons are twofold...the latest scam is to send bogus 2nd chance offers to customers from a fake email address in an attempt to scam them out of money. With a private auction the scammers won't know who our bidders are so if you get a 2nd chance offer from us you will know that it is the real deal! In addition, we set our reserves to sell which upsets other sellers! In fact, sometimes we set our reserve $1,000 or more below what our cost is. This leads other sellers to email our customers and knock our product! We will provide the winning bidder, upon request, with a complete bid history including the usernames & bid amounts of all other bidders. All new or low feedback (under 5 positives) bidders must first email us for no other reason than just to make contact. This way we know we have serious bidders! If you don't make contact we will cancel your bid and black you out from future bidding. We do this to avoid the de@dbe@t bidders, so please respect our policy. If you have a rating of 5 or better you don't have to email us. In the meantime, sit back and enjoy our site and add us to your favorites, because you just never know when your dream vehicle will pop up!!!

We've put this vehicle through our EXTENSIVE inspection process & can report it has a great ride & drive! We do our best to let you know of any/all issues we can find on these vehicles since you're buying sight-unseen. WATCH THE VIDEO. If you have any specific questions then don't hesitate to call us email us. Please understand we do our best to describe, in detail, every vehicle we offer to the Ebay public. However, if you have any hesitation during the bidding period, please obtain a Buyer's Inspection PRIOR TO PLACING YOUR BID to satisfy yourself. After the auction ends, understand you are the legal winning bidder of this auction and agree to all our Terms and Conditions.

Be sure and take a look at the book values on this vehicle (or any other we have for sale) before you bid. We stopped offering a built-in BuyIt Now option due to ebay's policy of letting anyone with an email address register a username. We had half a dozen de@dbe@t bidders in a row hit the BIN with no intention of paying. We do have a BuyIt Now price so give us a call if you're interested. Make sure you call us for more information on this vehicle. As always though, our reserve is THOUSANDS less than NADA value so bid early & bid often so you don't miss out!

Don't be outbid at the last minute! With the eBay proxy bidding system all you have to do is enter the maximum amount you're willing to pay when you get ready to bid. Ebay will then automatically bid against other people for you up to that amount to help make sure you don't miss out.

This saves you from getting sniped in the last few seconds of an auction by someone with a computer program. Don't try and bid in small increments at the last minute...go ahead & bid the full amount you're willing to pay then let eBay do the hard work!

This vehicle is for sale locally so we must reserve the right to end the auction early due to local sale. However, once the reserve is met then we will let the auction run its course & sell to the high bidder. Now for the fine print...
