Well. I had considered that 03 yesterday due to miles. But I'm looking only at 04's right now as I had been told the trans was a little stronger ect. So just what exactly is different between the two ? I got a pretty good look at that 03 yesterday. But have not seen an 04 that close yet.

the 40th trim package is the main difference

How about trans/drivetrain ? Just the trans ?

its the same.... go with 2005 if you can.

I'm looking for a new edge not an S197. I thought someone on here told me 04 had a different trans than the 03s and previous years ? Guess I'll look at 03's as well. I want the later years of the body style.

Yeah I mean if he likes the big bulkiness of the s197 platform, than sure, do that hahaha

01.5-04 are all the same. Pick up whichever you like better

2003 isn't a bad year. 03's and 04's are nearly identical.

If you're talking about the auto, then yes the 04 got a better version of the 4R70W, called the 4R75W. Obviously its more ideal to get the 4R75W but dont let it be a deal breaker the 4R70W is still a proven and reliable transmission without a doubt.

^+1, the 5-speeds were the same--the Tremec 3650...

Alright hangwire, thats what I heard in the past. And I'm looking for an auto. Ideally I would like an 04. But I'll take an 03 if the right one arises.
