I was satisfied with the deal. I asked for $9000 off of the $37,235 MSRP and got $8852. I gave up the financing rebate to not mess with the hassle of financing it. The captain's chairs are much more comfortable than the seats in my 2005. Still dislike the exterior, but the interior is great. I even dislike the tuxedo black. Much rather have plain black.
Congrats Jim!

No trade. I plan on cleaning it up some and selling it at some point.

Glad you found a truck at a good price. Same thing here I still think the 04-08's had a better look to them. You'll love the gas mileage on the new one though, a 4x2 ought to get 21-23 easy on the highway @ 65 mph.
