I am looking at a similar GMC truck at a local lot. '06 WT with upgades to 4.8, power windows/locks, CD player, slider back window, locking rear (3.23), seat. Maybe some other things I missed.
They told me it was a special order that a guy bought something different once it had arrived, but yours is the second one I've seen optioned almost identically and dalbers is real close? I wonder if they are blowing smoke - well, I know their lying out their a$$es (carsalesman and all), but was wondering if this was anywhere near true?

How does the 4.8 feel for power? Its rated @ 285 so on paper it seems like it would be pretty stout, but sometimes that doesn't translate to the pavement very well?

Its $19,6xx, but has about $4000 in discounts, including a $1500 "trade-in assistance". The price with the discounts is around $15,500.
Ezernut9mm, did your price (14.5) include an GM discounts? Dalber, if you don't mind me asking, what did you pay for yours? Not trying to be nosey, just trying to arm myself for the battle when I go in to deal with them!
