Well, with the current incentives on the 05's, and what I owe on my 03, I could trade it in and keep the same payment...$ wise.

I was wondering what you guys thought about the 05's?

My 03 has given me no trouble...
although the BH has the stain, but no drip.
it runs good, 17-18 mpg avg.
I don't know how it would tow. because I sold my boat.
Coming off the freeway after running a while it does have a slight rough idle.

Open for discussion...

How many miles on the 03? I would dump the 03 if I had the chance. You never know what you can run into with those 03's.

going to go for it but have some questions....

Dealer has a truck close to what I want except for a few extras I don't want...

Dual alternators... whats the downside other than cost of having two? I don't have a trailer so i really don't need them. Are they more trouble?

Snow plow package... what does this include?

thanks guys.

ps.. need answers by tomorrow...or I may have to go look you know where.

Dual alternators won't hurt you other then the extra cost. They will be there because of the snow plow package.

I am not sure what all the snow plow package includes but it shouldn't hurt you either except for the cost. Might include some extra wiring. I can't think of what else it would have.
