Yep, I caved in and splurged. I've been due for a long time. Could not afford all the bells and whistles but shes nice.

Well, they did'nt have any orange trucks on the lot. I had to buy a left over 06 to keep the price down.The timing happened to work out with my birthday so they gave up a set of ballons, and knocked off another $ 100.00.

It should be a towing monster, 3/4 ton with tow package. No bells and whistles though, It's got these strange handle crank things for the windows. I'll have to read the owners manual to figure out how to use them.

I just refuse to spend 28k and have to crank my own windows.

Bearhawk,

Can you crank your own windows if you put 5 grand in your pocket ?

22,900. was the price.

Accually I was missing the power windows 5 minutes after leaving the dealer lot.

My buddie restores old cars and says we can grab the power parts from a junkyard for a few hundred bucks. Half day at the junkyard, half day in his garage and I'm golden. He said might as well get the locks and mirror stuff too.

This truck will spend just as much time in the dirt working as it will on the road.

Might want to add passenger side keyed lock, or did yours come with one, can't tell from pic?

Ok then. I was looking at new 07's and you needed to spend 30k for Power Windows. (For the 2500 HD)

I did run by the local dealer and they have 2 06's in the 23k range. They do have those funny things on the inside of the door though.

It is a great truck, I hope you enjoy it.
