Default Is it Possible?

to spec out a truck with only the options you want, and order it directly from the factory?

Like order a single cab WT with a 6.2?

or a Colorado ecsb in wt/ls trim with a 5.3?

back in the day they would do damn near anything you asked......

I think you can it just makes it more work on the dealer's end and you would be required to put some money down on it as it would be a custom order. But then again I could be wrong.

Go to your nearest dealership and sit down with a salesman.. tell him what your looking for.. heck make out a list of the goodies..
And wait for him to laugh in your face.. or he might be helpfull and want to help you, who knows.

Let us know what you find out.
