I think the 2010 looks better and it looks like it wasn't even used as a truck!
maybe take a look under the carpet though and make sure its not all scratched up!
at 69K I don't think much is really coming your way, probly an AC compressor and a water pump, but that's just typical for that mileage

Yea ill try and go look at the 2010 this week if my car is gone.
I would prefer to go up there with money in hand and not have to loan anything.
I don't really wanna go crazy with mods. After owning my G8 and making it run mid 10's it wasn't super fun trying to make a really heavy fast heh.
Would just level it/33's/tune/cai/LTs

Thanks for the advice guys.
Yea i know the Ls motors are tough for sure. **** my old G8 i sprayed for almost 2 years and then put a blower on for over a year and ran the hell out of it and never had a issue.
Simple stuff like water pump or A/c compressor would be a walk in the park from what i've done before hahaah.
After owning the c6 over a year now and having it apart for the cam swap(have to drop the rack) and taking the subframe out 3 times for the converter swap/diff swap/ then repair diff and reinstall again LOL.
C6 isn't hard to work on just more time consuming compared to the Gto and G8.

I don't think there's anything to impossible about working on these cars and trucks with an LS! its all basic tools and easy enough to access
I'd take a corvette head swap over a VR6 VW timing belt any day of the week haha

One thing i'm trying to figure out what rear end is in the denali awd trucks?
I've seen people say 10 bolt and some say 14 bolt depending on year.
And the 2wd gets 14 bolt no matter what?

What I can tell you on that is my Denali is a 2011 AWD and it has the 14 bolt. Lol, that doesn't help tho.
