My first truck was a 1995 Chevy C1500 Silverado with 245k miles on it in 2013. I sold it to my brother about a year later and he had it to 320k about 3 years after that.

My biggest piece of advice, as the owner of a 1996 C1500 and 2006 Silverado 1500, and former owner of a 2003 GMC Yukon with the same 5.3L engine you have, is to be careful with the transmission.

Glad you have some idea of what is going on now. Be careful with an engine/transmission swap, as with modern vehicles, EVERYTHING is integrated with the computer system, and also tied to the VIN of the vehicle.

So it's kind of a crap shoot. As far as stereos go, on the GMT800 truck like you have, the warning chimes, blinker sound, and all that goes through the stereo and front door speakers, believe it or not.

Got a Durafit seat cover installed; the interior is all blue and in immaculate shape, so I want to keep it that way. I want to get the bed fixed up (after having that snap-on tonneau cover bolted to the top) and then have bedliner applied.

Picked up new windshield wipers, front turn signal housings, and taillights on RockAuto -- mainly for aesthetics. Got a Durafit seat cover installed; the interior is all blue and in immaculate shape, so I want to keep it that way.

In 2009, at 100,000 miles, I had the transmission filter and fluid changed. I kinda did it as panicked preventative maintenance after my 2003 Yukon transmission had to be rebuilt at 130K miles.
