are you paying cash? or financing? because if you are going to finance a used vehicle, I'd be willing to bet you do a brand new vehicle for the same or just slightly more dough, especially if its a 4x4 truck. Just a guess though, haven't check used car loans lately.

be careful with those heated seats, i read somewhere men with cars that have heated seats have lower sperm counts compared to their non heated seated counterparts.
post some pics it sounds real nice.

 i could see this being true too. your sperm needs to be at a specific temp. too hot/cold and they die. heated seats could prevent proper temp regulation. i was considering making my seats heated but eff it now!

Certified doesn't mean anything. Means some JO sat down and checked off a bunch of boxes to throw in the file with the rest of the documentation about the truck.
Do you need a bed or will an SUV do?
Any off roading or heavy hauling?
If I was looking at an Avalanche, I would have to consider the sweet deals on 2500 4x4's that every brand has right now.
