And remember, with airbags you can adjust the height, it doesn't have to be slammed all the time.
Sorry Da88, back on topic now. That sounds like a decent deal, especially if it has a 4L80. I think a CCSB 6.2 would be sweet. I would keep that diesel for sure. Keep us posted on your decision.

I'm very anti-short bed, and very much against the womanization of a one ton truck by removing everything that makes it heavy duty, and replacing those parts based on style and comfort. I've owned two shortbeds, and am currently driving a third, and it always seems the bed if full long before I have everything I need to load in it.
And the suburban I had sat eight people, and could haul drywall in the rain.
