those seeking therapy while I wait for the new truck! First let me say that I belong to a number of truck, boat and formerly Corvette forums. This is a great place, with excellent atmosphere, and well defined individual forums! http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Cool.gif I just ordered my first diesel, an D/A Crew (Chevy) in Victory Red. LS trim, but fully optioned right down to wheel controls, pwr seat, marker lamps, dual alts. ect. I just don't like leather, and at 6'6" the console is a bit of an issue in terms of leg room. I traded my '02 GMC HD EXT 8.1/Ally w/19,000 mi. Love the big gasser...it's a good strong truck w/NO ISSUES and some subtle mods. I tow a 12000 lb.+ Formula powerboat so I could always use more power towing (and the economy empty!). I got a good buck for my truck (w/the tax savings a total close to what I could sell it outright for), I keep the bedliner/tonneau/other stuff, and after $1000 bonus cash (taking the 0% 60 mo.) got ~15% off MSRP on the pricing of the crew! I couldn't not do it now! I'll only owe 13K on this thing in 3 years! http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big Smile.gif Thanks for all the knowledge you all put in here...this is where I'll be! I'm aware of Howard, and hope to have a TPW within two weeks. I've got a bug out to the rep as to if the late '04 availability power sunroof CF5 can be had in my truck? or if it requires LT trim, it's not clear. I'll have alot of questions as I'm new to diesel power and can't leave anything alone (stock) for long...http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Thumbs Up.gif Edited by: Rippem
