well here's the specs:
The specs on this truck and the specs on the proposed retail version will undoubtedly differ. This truck started life out as a loaded 2WD 1500 LS package with 4800 V8, 3.73 rear axle ratio, lowered 2.5” rear fitted with factory 20” wheels/tires, the interior was enhanced with a leather wrapped steering wheel w/radio controls a 6-disk in-dash CD changer, upgraded speakers and a-pillar tweeters, driver information center controls, Car2U universal garage door opener, and the outside was fitted with color keyed body side moldings, door handles, mirror caps along with contoured mud guards front and rear. Total MSRP for the truck and equipment comes in at under $25k, if the customer was to opt for the Vortec 5300 it would push the MSRP up to just over $25k

All that really caught my eye is that is comes with 20's and it's lowered 2.5" in the rear. It's still has the underpowered 4.8L and 3.73 gears.

i doubt they would put that kind of power on that frame.... you would be lucky to get a 6.0 in that truck...
