I finally picked up my new truck on Friday afternoon. I ordered it back on 8/12. I did have a few suprises. I got upgraded tires (P255/70R-16 OWL All-Season), 3.55 gears (instead of the 3.31 I expected), and Premium Sound With 6-Disc CD Changer (instead of the single CD with premium sound). Those three upgrades were part of a V6 special package. Dealer didn't even know about it either until it got there. Besides getting the free upgrades, I got a great price too. My wife's uncle is the manager of the dealership so I got invoice price. This is my first new vehicle (I'm 22 now and been married for 10 months), and am thrilled with my new truck. I don't think I could have picked a better vehicle to buy.

Congratulations on your marriage, your 1st new truck, and your good deal. Sounds like a very exciting time of life for you. Those upgrades sound great too. Those 3.55s will be a great all around ratio. Good Luck !
