Default reg cabs!! why so much??

how can GM or who ever justify there prices on the reg cab trucks!?
looking at a 2006 reg cab 2500hd w/16,000miles LS with a dukeymax,allison tow pack etc etc!
they want 25.9K
now how in the hell can that truck be that much?
i want the truck, but i just cant justify it! my 05 cc ls 5.3 with evey thing but leather, new wasnt that much $25K is what i paid for it in late 04

Yeah, especially considering it has a Duramax/Allison drivetrain.

yeah, the D-max/allison pkg was worth just over 6K for that model year, that'd be the reason. I've seen reg cab 6 liter gas HD's got for around 20K, the price might not be all that high. It's not a helluva deal, but not bad all in all

If you want a Dirtymax, you have to pay. They hold their value well.
