Great pictures, as usual.

A little off topic, but 349k miles is pretty impressive. Not sure if you bought the Cruiser new or not, but have you had any major work done on the drive train?

Bought it 2 yrs ago in SLC....had 336K on it...now 349K

Previous owner spent a ton on maintenance items....but said started burning oil...

Changed PCV valve & ran couple gallons of Marvel Mystery Oil & Seafoam through it

Doesn't use any oil at current 4K mile changes

I've gone completely over it....all fresh fluids....serp belt...plugs...fuel filter...exhaust...pads/rotors

Fresh 2" suspension lift...tires/wheels.....bumps & body bruises to be addressed this summer

Along with new leather replacement installed in both rows upon purchase (leather came with purchase deal)

Timing belt kit done at 296K...spending many winters in northern Utah

Its not as clean as my Arizona LX 470 'Cruiser...with a mere 212K miles

But it sure runs strong & turns 16 mpg on & off road..great truck !

My 12 YO G/daughter from WY wants it ! She took her first driving lesson with it recently

Had a buddy get his knees replaced, so borrowed my Youkon XL to go and come in, we put a mattress in the back for him. He gave me his Custom Cruiser, with a Chevy 283/301 in it, to drive, in exchange. Great Scott. It would burn rubber in 4th and driving around town was very interesting. Stopping at a red light and turning, had to be very careful not to swop ends on dry pavement. This guy was a quiet PHD professor type, said he built it to tow his travel trailer....yep, sure.
