96-99 Chevy/GMC 3500 ?'s

Michael Kilduff · 10-30-2011, 09:58 AM

I have found a few 96-99 year model GM 3500 dual wheel trucks w/454-automatics for sale and I have some questions about these trucks that some here may be able to answer.

Were there any drivetrain-especially transmission and induction/fuel delivery- differences in these years? If so which is preferred?

What kind of mileage and economy should I expect when pulling 7000 pounds on flat terrain , city and highway?

What reliability issues did these vehicles tend to have, if any?

All the ones I am interested in have 90-125K miles, look to be well kept.

Any relies will be appreciated.
