Its' great. Only thing I wish was different was that it had the bench seat in front. I think I can switch it out for one, but we've got 6 in the family and I would love the ability to take everyone in this thing.

my first diesel was a crew cab, long bed chevy in white. however mine was an 03(lb7) so while i miss the "truck" i do not miss the engine. i replaced it with an older (01) 7.3l E350, which hasnt been problem free but its seeved me well, still i would love to own an 07 classic someday. the lbz plus the 6 speed allison is a very solid unrestricted combo! still got my tailgator cap for when i finally splurge....i reccommend getting a billet bleeder and wifs plug for the fuel filter housing as the factory ones tend to wear out and crack. oh and if you have any bulbs out up front its likely the socket or harness not the bulb itself, i think they were recalled. you will begin to notice 99% of the 03-07 (cateyes) and maybe 01/02s on the road have one "burnt out" bulb up front...

you just need the middle jumper seat, gurantee someone will trade for your console, i had and prefer the "bench" most prefer the console.
