Hi tried a vehicle search and couldn't find any 07's with exactly what I was looking for so I am going to order one Saturday 5/12. The dealer said it would be picked up on Wed 5/16 and built the week of 7/16.

Getting an SLT with all the options except the DVD player. I will be towing with this truck and like the (DPN) O/S mirrors but will also be parking in a garage in the winter where the standard power retractable mirrors would be convenient to give me more clearance. Does anyone know an after-market solution that would work for towing a wide beam 9' 3" boat?

Is the new high idle (UF3) a good thing to get? Any other must have options? Noticed that the EZ lift gate negates the remote locking tailgate can you get an aftermarket tailgate lift assist? I don't need the assist but think my wife would find that convenient.

Leaning towards Stealth grey anyone seen or have a link to the Dark Crimson or Sonoma Red metalics?
Thanks so much I'll post my progress here.
Mike

I've tried the EZ-lift gates at the dealer and they don't seem much easier than the regular ones. You should have the wife try them out. The locking tailgate option is very nice.

Don't know if you are planning on keeping the stock tires, but on my 05 I got the "On-Off Road" tires for $55 and this gave me the Bridgestone M773 which is a much better tire than the standard V-Steels. Don't know what tires are used on the new truck but something to consider.
