[Savagecanuck1]

I stopped by the local dealer and looked at a few of the 2010's and see that all of their 5.3 equipped trucks came with the new 6spd.The Z71 equipped trucks also had the Rancho shocks[my 08 just has Z71 decals .Bluetooth in the stereo was about the only other thing I noticed.What else has changed?

The price!

 

Also, all are now AFM engines. Airbags are in the seats and not on the pillars/overheads and are standard.

 

Did I mention the price?

[RyanbabZ71]

The base price only went up like $300.

USB is not included on AM/FM stereo systems. I have a 2010 WT with Am/FM and I had to get a new stereo installed to have an Aux jack and a USB port.

FYI that info back in Feb 2010 was copied from a gm site.

I thought the Z71 had always had upgraded shocks. My new Z71 has the Rancho shocks, which stand out with their odd color. I'd prefer Bilstiens, which I had installed myself on my old truck. While on paper the Rancho and Bilstiens sound similar, the Bilstiens just had a more smoother operation and ride.
