Default bought an 06

Well after much thought I traded in my goat on a 1 owner 06 tbss. The truck has been taking very well care of and was a one owner truck. It is bone stock and has a some miles on it though "90k". Just wandering if there is any thing that I need to worry about are be on the look out for. I will most likely leave it stock minus some cosmetic changes. Bought it to tow the race truck. I will post pics soon.

It may look good and seem taken care of..you may want to check the tranny. If its 90k miles and still has the stock tranny, then its been taken WELL care of.

Yeah I had the tranny serviced last week by my tranny guy. He said the fluid was a little nasty but there wasnt any trash in the pan which is a good thing. I am gonna do plugs/wires this weekend because I think there stock.
