Could you explain how it would cost a lot in parts? Changing something like this just oblivious to me.
Here's the steering wheel I'm looking to get to replace my standard steering wheel with:

Granted this part is a 2016 and my truck is a 2017. Not sure if that would make a difference, but there's not a lot of parts out for 2017s. Couldn't they just swap it to this steering wheel and flash the BCM? I don't know what all it entails to just add cruise control.
Donstar, I'll keep this thread updated. I keep getting no from different sources, but I also got a lot of 'NOs' when I wanted to get Keyless entry/Remote start for my base model WT. GM Care said it can't be done, parts guy at a few dealerships said it couldn't be done, and then I walked over to the GM Service guys and they said "yeah, we can do that, just order the fobs or buy the kit from us"
As far as the aftermarket, this is what I'd be buying:

It doesn't intimidate me, but I just don't want to be cutting/splicing wires in my steering column in my brand new truck. I'm sure it'll work pretty good, but I also don't want to void my electronics warranty if I don't have it.
