I began to have second thoughts until I started looking at all I was getting; 6.0, 4l65e & cooler, SS frame & handling package, 20" SS wheels, nice sound, etc... Everything I was wanting was there. And I even liked the color.

CONGRATS Jim!!! I hope you got a better deal than I would have gotten. My dealer (which I bought 4 trucks from and never will buy another from) told me $40k driveout for an 04 Sierra ECSB LQ9 with On-star and XM (stickered for $32k). I walked out on them ($20k for both trades !?!), they were trying to screw me. I would have loved to have it though and the one payment. But, I'll just have to look around. So, how much did they give for your 02? You said you had 70k+ miles on it? I was told $13k for my 02 LT(every option) and 80k+ miles.

NADA said I could get about $10k. Edmunds said up to $13k. I ended up getting $12.5k for it with 79k miles. I was happy with that. I'm pretty sure they were too. They will sell that truck for $16k to someone and come out just fine.

Keep looking around you'll find a good deal. The dealership I bought this one from has a Victory Red Silverado VHO with leather bucket seats and interior. PM me and I will tell more about it if you are interested. I saw the invoice.

I have to wait another year or so until the 03 has more paid on it (and I find a job). Then it is 6.0 all the way.

Basically, Yes!! The sales manager told me that he was only making $800 off that truck, when he should be making $10k off that truck! I told him to try and tell someone else that bull$hit, cause I'm not buying it!
