Hi from Ontario

I've been driving a 1999 somoma ZR2 until now for work (environmental chemist, serious offroading to field sites like quarries, landfills and rural fields in all weather). I got fed up with GM service and just bought a 2006 FX4. I'm curious, is there any way to look up what the original MSRP was to see what I saved buying used?

Welcome to this forum! How much was it (in US dollars)?

I'll guess 80 cents to the US dollar so $11200 plus $160 for safety, e test etc and 13% sales tax. Stuff I like: the bed liner is a perfect fit (on the Sonoma, the GMC liner doesn't line up with the tie hooks and bulges up in the middle) and the rubber floor (not only does the ZR2 have carpet, the manual warns that if it gets wet the air bags could deploy). I'm a bit worried about the mushy gear shift, it reminds me of my last Ford (1971 LTD). Otherwise compared with the Sonoma I get a higher stance, better engine response and faster switch between 2XD and 4XD. I think it will do me well.
