Used Pickup Trucks for Sale nearCarbondale, IL

Before purchasing a used Silverado 2500HD, I would strongly recommend checking the overall condition of the truck with special attention to rust, the transmission, suspension, and maintenance history. Look closely at the rocker panels, cab corners, wheel wells, frame rails, brake lines, and fuel lines for excessive rust, flaking metal, or holes. During the test drive, make sure the transmission shifts smoothly without slipping, shuddering, hard shifts, or delayed engagement into drive or reverse, and ask whether it is the original transmission or if it has ever been rebuilt or replaced. Check the engine for oil leaks, coolant leaks, unusual noises, excessive exhaust smoke, or warning lights, and ask if major components such as the water pump, radiator, or thermostat have been replaced. Pay close attention to the steering and suspension by listening for clunks, checking for loose steering, and looking for uneven tire wear that could indicate worn ball joints, tie rods, wheel bearings, or other front-end components. Also inspect the brakes for pulsation, soft pedal feel, or rusted lines, and examine the tires for uneven wear, dry rot, or signs that an alignment or suspension issue may be present. Most importantly, ask for maintenance records and receipts for major repairs, as a well-documented truck is generally a much safer purchase than one with an unknown service history. For a high-mileage Silverado 2500HD, rust, transmission condition, front-end wear, four-wheel-drive operation, and cooling system maintenance are the areas most likely to lead to expensive repairs if they have been neglected.

Great condition really nice interior, really good priced drives and runs great

The car comes with incredible features I wasn’t even prepared for. Everything is thoughtfully crafted and they make use of every inch of space with hidden storage compartments. I love it so far

Great vehicle! Has everything I need in a strong durable truck! Will definitely buy Ford again.

Love this truck! Love the inline 6 diesel! And my fiance loves the massaging seats!
