Default ST to SLT?

Ok, My local dealer called me and they just traded for an 1 owner Reg Cab 4wd hemi but its an ST. No power windows or locks. It has the chrome wheels, tow pkg, bedliner. What I'm wondering it how much would it cost to put power windows and locks in the truck? I can do without but it would be convenient to have it. Thanks. -Tyler btw its Dark blue and silver.

I would wait until they get a SLT model. You can add the power windows and door locks, but I suspect you will not like them as much, especially since it won't look stock. Also, the one size fits all kits aren't exactly known for 100% reliability. They can be made to work, but with anything that has to be fabricated (or bent to fit) the problem potential goes way up.

Honestly, there is not that big of a price difference between and ST and SLT when you buy used. So I'd wait, IMHO.

Actually there is a really big difference in price here in arkasas. I'm gonna be getting this truck for 12-13k When an slt the same year and mileage would be 15-17k. The market is really ridiculous right now.

If it were me, I'd wait for an SLT. Better interior, and it looks a hell of alot better.

Well you can go to a shop and put in power windows along with an alarm kit which does the power locks for you. It should be around 350 for the power windows and around 90 dollars for the alarm. This is in California though, so I really can't say how it is going to be like in your state.
