I bought a 2013 sierra and 2015 sierra 2500hd for 10,500 combined. What a steal! Unfortunately it broke down right away.

Thats awesome news glad they finally came through in the end. It's amazing what companies will try to squeeze out of warranty work. Friend had a 2500 chevy once which had multiple times a wire harness replaced under warranty, known issue on them apparently. The last time it was in they noticed he put a cold air intake on. They refused replacing the harness even though it had failed twice before with no intake change. Then to be even nicer they red flagged it and called up GM to ensure the warranty was voided in total. No clue why they didnt just have him swap the intake out. Oddly enough he continued driving GM for years after, last new one though.

About 40 miles north of me in the Hudson Valley of NY saw some of the worst flooding they have had in decades. As to the trucks, that is not rust, that is Vermont Patina. 😁 Another set of good purchases for the money and your needs. Good due to your persistence you got the transmission fixed.
