I paid 48 for mine... fully loaded and bermuda blue...

I don't have the camper package or the engine heater, but I have everything else.

From the sounds of a few other posts, you might want to check into finding one with 4:10 gears.

Check out the post called Gears

There have been a lot of posts from folks with 4.10 gears that are getting better mpg. Apparently at hiway speeds, the engine is in the sweet spot with 4.10 as opposed to the 3.73.

I have 3.73 and at 2100 mi, am getting 12/16 driving very conservatively.

I actually got my sticker down to 45K from 53K. Fully loaded black on black 4x4, w/ 4.10 gears. Like I said before only thing missing is the engine heater and retractable steps which are not offered yet. Good luck! Here are a few pics.

Autoride, when it comes time to replace the rear shocks on your dime is a few $$$$, if you want to go low, the airshocks pose a problem.
On the wheels......if you want to be different, instead of paying GM for wheels, buy your own and be totally different than that of every other LTZ running around.

Dark One:

I think you are missing one more option. Bermuda Blue Paint is an option that costs extra on top of everything else. As far as I know it is the only exterior color you have to pay extra for. I had to be "that guy" and point that out.

I never heard that as being an option. That is new to me. More power to those who want that baby blue color. I guess if you want to pay for that color. Oh well then that is one option I would never consider.

You might not, but I did. And guess what, I like it. I would guess there is a reason ppl pay extra for it. Maybe you should look at it because it's not even close to baby blue. In my opinion, and just my opinion, it isn't as boring as the other colors. anybody else??

You mean they come in something besides black? JK

I wouldn't worry about DarkOne's thoughts. You learn something about them when he referred to it as "baby" blue. I just looked at it in the brochure and if it's accurate, it's a long way from baby blue.
