@Ashron, very informative and useful, thanks!

How about 2013, 2014, and 2015? Any significant differences between them?

Default Need advice on new 2016 purchase

Rather than start a new thread I'm hoping my questions can get answered here:

1) Thinking of getting Atomic silver with cabernet/black interior. What do you'll think esp. from a wear 'n tear and resale perspective?

2) I test drove one the other day and found the power/torque a little underwhelming. Is that an accurate assessment?

3) I changed modes to eco/sport/normal, etc but didn't really find any change in the handling (was looking for a little more stable/sporty handling). Thoughts?

1) great color to hide dirt, i have atomic silver on my gs now, likes it a lot. interior either one would work

2) resale wise, lx is always strong but gold, white, and black always hold value better

1. Silver is a great color to hide dirt. Worrying about color based on resale is not what I'd care about, unless I were planning to flip the truck immediately.

2. I find it's not nearly as responsive as the 6-speed.

3. Were you on an "interesting" road when you played with the AHC controls, or simply driving down city streets or a freeway?
