When I was with my buddy earlier to look at my issue, we got talking and he made a good point regarding the cost that I would be looking at for a used one vs. a new one are not that far apart. So I just built a '13 and it came out just a little north of $41K. That is for a XLT, CC, 4X4, 6.5' bed, 5.0, 3.55 limited slip with no major options other than factory remote start, bed extender and running boards.
