Looks like you got just about everything available. The only thing I didn't see was the GPS Nav unit with 6cd changer and the rear seat DVD system. The only thing that I can say is, if your lady is of the short stature get some side steps. Either the power fold away or the chrome tube type. She will appreciate it.
Here's the salesman's pitch... If you add them now (time of sale) you can finance them into your regular payment plus they will have the same warranty as the truck itself.
Call around before you say yes or no. Get some working numbers for the cost of them. You don't want to screw up and spend $5k for a $900 item.

 

$400 Will Get You A Great Pair Of Stainless Tubes. My Truck Is Identical Minus The Limited Slip And Mines A 1 Ton. Exact Same Options And Colors. Sunroof Would Have Been Great! GOT MINE FROM THE DEALERSHIP BRAND NEW FOR $39,000 IN AUGUST 06.

 

I am paying invoice minus 500 bucks on this truck.

I am ordering amp research power steps as i will lift it with a 6" lift in not to long of time.

i also have a nav unit to put in as I do not like the factory joystick nav units. I like touchscreen.

 

Personally, I would go with a 6.7.. I think it is a winner,, that 6 speed auto and vg turbo, are the ticket,,, as well as the built in jake brake

Kevin

 

I can add a jakebrake, fuel mileage has beenbetter on the 5.9, the cruising RPM is the same, and I can mod a 5.9 easily with no problems. i would not touch the new motor at all. In fact i have read of quite a few problems on here and seen 1 at the local dealer. almost as bad s the new 6.4 from Ford.

 

Ouch.. How dare you!!

Anyway, I would also stick with the 5.9 for mod reasons and just being the first year of the 6.7. I know they have been tested for many miles but personaly I would wait for a while before getting the 6.7.

Keep it the way it is and enjoy your new truck!!

 

Apparently it's not loaded... I saw one here yesterday for $56k... I almost fell over!!

 

their are a few other things to get that were mentioned such as Nav and im sure some other little crap, upgraded tires etc. but Factory NAV is the worst from most car manufactures, I made that mistake on my current truck. I will never go without touch screen again. i have it on my Lexus and its the only way to go.

 

Invoice less $500 is not the best deal to be had. There are dealers that can do better.

 

I would price Dave Smith Motors in Kellogg, ID, just an idea.

 

I would highly suggest looking for captain chairs in the front seat since you are going with the automatic. The center consol is a must. It took me a LONG time to find it but its worth the money. The cup holders are by far superior.

 

that's where i got mine.

 

here is my sticker:

 

I am 500 over invoice minus incentives @ Dave Smith.
