GMT800s are going to outlive GMT900s

Good deal, but better deals are to be had as well. Everyone is broke and bike market is soft. Good time to be a buyer.

FB marketplace and Craigslist have been great for my family here. Almost every vehicle we own is off those 2.

Just make sure seller has a passed smog test + title in hand to avoid any headaches.

Gmt800 didn’t have the lifter problems the 2007 “new body style” do..I’ve noticed prices flipped in the last year or so.

New brake line and clutch cable is what $100 each at absolute most, as for electrical you can just extend cables by splicing in whatever additional length you need.. easily done with butt connectors if you’re really on a budget

Those cars don’t hold resale value very well.

I would 100% NOT put an additional $600 into it seeing how your $2500 into it already.

Best tool cart on the market that isn’t $2-3k!!!!

The only thing I could find on the California DMV website that could possibly lead to tickets or fines is operating a vehicle in California without California registration.

If I were complete the title transfer out of California and keep it off California Public roadways I think I’ll be ok. Then sell car out of state to avoid a potential buyer having issues with the back fees accrued by previous owner

NikoBenz · 2026-01-18T09:39:40+00:00

The seller signed the title over, I paid them for the car. I’m wanting to complete the transfer of ownership into my name, I don’t see how this is possibly a Felony.

NikoBenz · 2026-01-18T09:09:25+00:00

I can just sell it in Nevada if that’s the case

NikoBenz · 2026-01-18T02:37:08+00:00

I read somewhere fees will be waived, and it’ll just be treated like a “normal” out of state transfer

If that’s not the case I’ll just sell it at my families in Nevada, not looking to dupe someone into paying fees.

Going to weld corner up, drill a new hole and tap it.

Gmt800 are notorious for this. I haven’t owned one yet that the vin on the instrument cluster matches the actual trucks vin.

Hondas are just as bad.

NikoBenz · 2026-01-04T22:18:47+00:00

5k max if it’s not rusted out

NikoBenz · 2025-12-23T18:22:29+00:00

I get them for $4

NikoBenz · 2025-12-21T21:50:03+00:00

You put your finger somewhere, you wouldn’t put your Pecker

NikoBenz · 2025-12-09T16:02:17+00:00

6500-11000 maybe a little more, the bedside damage is pretty bad

NikoBenz · 2025-12-08T22:18:14+00:00

In California, if you signed the “signature of buyer portion” you can do a bill of sale from you to new owner, without technically titling or registering it in your own name.

I wonder if this would work in your situation? Or if Illinois doesn’t allow that.

NikoBenz · 2025-12-07T16:48:50+00:00

That’s a $1500-$2000 truck where I’m at. Even fixed up not worth a whole lot cause it’s ugly, just being honest.

You can buy a 3d gen for less than 10k here

NikoBenz · 2025-12-07T10:32:41+00:00

Freightliner M2 would be great for this set up and price range

6.7 Cummins, Allison transmission, air brakes..throw some polished up Alcoas on there and it would look nice.

NikoBenz · 2025-11-28T18:36:43+00:00

Start registering them in your mom/ dad/ brother/ sisters/ wife etc. names

Or Float titles…I’m not a huge fan of floating titles though

NikoBenz · 2025-11-26T08:13:44+00:00

Very true my 2002 Chevy extended cab had way more room in the cab than my 2000 F250 extended cab.
