That'* not a Work Truck. It'* an LS Silverado.

I can tell because it has pushbutton 4WD, power windows/locks/mirrors, and carpet on the floor. The asking price is right for that truck.

I didn't believe it was a work truck when I saw it because they have a lot less chrome.

Yea, WTs have no chrome on them except for the bumpers and grille'*.

The LS trucks have the body molding, it'* a dead giveaway.

I definetely going to try to talk him down, and I agree they did an awesome job fixing that gmc. The black 05 gmc in grand haven seems a little more realistic for me.
