Default 08 Bullitt vs. Silverado Z71

hey guys, i just wanted to know your thoughts on my trading my 06 Chevy Silverado EXT Cab Z71 got 37k on it for a 08 Mustang Bullitt the truck has 7 inch in dash Monitor, and a System. i have owned the truck since brand new only 20 miles when i got it. do you really think the bullitt is gonna be worth some money and a true head turner?

THE NEW BULLITS ROCK! I would say if you don't NEED the truck go for it!

No I personally dont see it worth the mark up.

base price is 31,075....only 7k being made. thus being a nice mark up. BUT if you can get one at msrp or so, id go for it.

the new bullitt is garbage, Ford did a crappy job on making it, dealership markup is too much, and it looks like a stock v6.

Your better off trading the z71 for a GT and then using the money you save (by not being raped by markup) to buy the body parts needed to convert it to a bullitt, window louvers, side scoops, hood scoop, dhg paint, and you'd still have enough to make it faster than the bullitt as well as handle better. The car's suspension is a fizzle and so is the power it makes.

I'm a mustang fan like any other but the bullitt is just another one of those get your money kinda stangs, very little substance.

Keep the truck or get the Mustang GT.

Dude, there shouldn't be any mark up. If you can't find a dealership that isn't marking it up, send me a message and I'll get you hooked up. I sell Fords.

Yes, it's limited to 7,000, but if you know how to get them, they shouldn't be that hard to find.

Id say keep the truck since you already have a mustang. I think the bullitts are overrated anyway. More chicks dig trucks and you have the best of both worlds there
