Not planning a big stereo but sometimes plans change. I'd believe duals would effect mileage more negatively also.

Well, your original post indicates that you do not want to let this truck get away from you, and there is a solution. You pretty much answered your own question. I'm not sure what you are looking to learn with this thread.....

So far, thanks for the feedback... I am going to search for the center console and then see if I can find out the invoice price on the truck and see how close I can get.

To be honest, I'm asking myself the same question to try and justify not ordering and having to wait. I guess I like the idea of the "better" shocks, skid plates and hill decent feature.

Question on fuel system, every one nows about Rick, I ordered truck at that time but decided not to pick it up due to his problems, seems like its not a wide spread issue at this time. The dealer called me Friday and left a message asking if I was coming for the truck. If for some crazy reason the bosh pump goes bad is there a after market pump that could be installed that would and any further issues.

Don't flame me, but I drove a 2012 Sierra with the Duramax/Allison setup and Denali package. The truck was very nice and drove nicely as well. I liked that it didn't feel so big, but it also didn't have the info center screen and was about $3500 more. Anyone have any pointers for me that would help me decide? I still have my reservations about the GMC, but I like it as well...

The bottom line is,your the one who is gonna plant your rear end in the truck.Whatever one you like the best is what you need to do.It is not about us, were not paying for it. That's my .002 worth

They ordered bench, I told them console.
i had local dealer order me a 350DRW with console for vents and inverter, but they ordered the bench. I said if I'M spending that amount if money I wanted what i ordered. They were willing to cut $1000 but told me Icould put in after market console. How much for that, $2500. I told them to just order what i wanted. LOL
