Yeah, mine was around $31-32k too, before tax, title, license. All in all with the bedliner, lined wheelwells, tires, tint, leveling kit, and the enormous TTL here, I was in the neighborhood of $36k, still well under MSRP but nowhere close to twenty-anything-thousand.

Mine was the same. Some of the numbers I see thrown around are a bit hard to understand. I know some dealers give you a couple thousand more off if you take their rip off financing. Mine doesn't do that, nor would I be interested in it.

I ALWAYS watch truck deals, and the best I usually see is about $5-6k in rebates, my dealer gives an extra thousand off if the truck is over 120 days old, plus GM discount. That comes out to about 10 grand off sticker. Once in a while, you might find some lease loyalty or competitive company rebate as well for another G.

I took the rip-off financing and refinanced to something under 2% after a few payments. I also had GM Employee Pricing. I agree that some of these OTD prices people pay are nuts; must be nice.

Nitrous
Turbo
Supercharger
N/A with Heads, cam, stall, headers, gear.

yes i agree!!!

but a cheap nitrous kit sure is fun!!! 150hp at the touch of a button is awesome

BTW my nitrous times are only .1 second and 2 mph faster than i was on the stock cam LQ4 with 6psi 60mm rear mount on 28" slicks..
