I bought a '96 Club Cab, SLT, V-8, 5-speed, 4x4, tow package (HD service
group) and hitch, fog lights, predator wheels (no charge option), bucket
seats, overhead console, 1800lb payload option, anti-spin rear end, and
probably something else I am forgetting. In round numbers, I paid $20,200
(including $500 rebate) with a free bedliner (worth an additional $200). With
the rebate, I was $200 over invoice. I think the MSRP was about $23,500. I
put a century painted color matched cap on the back for an additional ~$900.

Reliability has been very good. I've put 6000 miles on it since mid November.
The only problem I've had is a blown rear speaker which was replaced under
warrantee. I have a slight rattling sound when I idle the truck in neutral
without my foot off the clutch which may be the throw-out bearing. I'll have
to have the dealer look at it soon, although I have until 36,000 miles to have
it fixed.
