    2004 LS8 120k forsale: to buy or not to buy

    Have done a lot more thinking.... Im not all about selling my 86 diesel to get the LS but can have em all. With my luck I would get rid of a good running 27 year old pickup that shouldn't see short 5 mile trips to a 10 year old car that should have no problem with them and the inevitable will...

    Joe, I had to wait to reply when I had my laptop, couldn't stand reading my posts off my phone. Anyway I fully understand the possibilities of owning another LS. I think that the fact its a 120k 6 year old car with great records that hasn't had much for trouble so to speak. I would be fine...

    No longer in the LS club

    If your anywhere north of 2002late/early2003 most likely you will "never" have this issue. BUT, there are a select amount of issues with water corrosion seizing the plugs in the ports on the 04-up 5.4s. Very unlikely in most cases but has been noted on a truck or two in our fleet.
