Should I buy a 2008 Chevy Silverado with 152k miles
I’m 17 looking for my first car. My budget is $6500. I came across a 2008 LTZ Chevy Silverado with 152,000 miles for $7000 but I negotiated it down to $5500. Everything looks good. There’s no rust on the outside of the vehicle and surface rust underneath, but the frame is very solid. The only concern with the vehicle is the tire pressure monitor sensor which a mechanic could fixe for a few hundred. Now this is off Facebook marketplace so it is unsure what else could be wrong but it does look very good. Obviously I’m still young so when I brought up to my parents, they loved it besides, they’re afraid that the transmission and the engine is gonna run into issues very soon and told me to wait for something else. Now I could push it and get it, but what do you guys think what I run into issues with the transmission or engine soon? Should I wait to see if another deal comes up with a decent car?
