What are the problems with this year/model? Seems like a clean truck.

This is a local truck and looks really clean. Thinking about picking it up for a work truck but I remember lot's of emissions related problems on these back in the day. Good candidate for deleting immediately?

If you are in a state with NO smog inspections then it would be a fine truck. I am not sure about all the things you have to change and add to make it run well with a full delete. I have the G56 and it has been a good transmission. I have 103,000 miles on it with most of them with a Smarty Jr on the 70 hp setting so 395hp. The G56 can be tough shifting when temps get in the 30's at night. Alaska much cooler. If I have time, I start the truck, put the transfer case in neutral and put the trans in 3rd or 4th gear and set the high Idle and exhaust brake. After 5 minutes, the engine is warm, the cab is warm and the trans shifts good.

The listing was deleted (no pun intended).

One thing to ponder regarding “no emission testing in my area”.
There is no inspection whatsoever for over 8500 trucks in New Jersey. However, I believe they do roadside random puffs. That’s like walking into a blender with a deleted truck, if that’s what we’re talking about.

I agree with Wayne M. Here in Commiefornia, we don't have the luxury of delete unless someone knows a way around it.

Thankfully we have none of the emissions oversight here since we voted it out. I’m also glad the truck sold. I wasn’t really ready to role the dice on something that’s going to need to have lots of money thrown at it especially considering that most of the good delete companies have been sued out of existence by the epa.
