Bench vs. captains chairs for second row. I'm glad I got the bench. I still have plenty of room for stuff in the other storage consoles but the extra seat and easy fold down for carrying stuff comes in handy almost weekly.

Front brush guard is junky as are all of these things because they don't protect in a collision and more often than not cause additional damage you wouldn't have when the guard bends back into the hood or lights.

NAV. I love mine. Works great. But you can do very well aftermarket. Same with the DVD.

The BOSE sucks, but then again, its fine for most people.

Leather is key. Cloth is easily stained, ripped, etc.

Glad I got 4x4. I've used it many times and it really has gotten me out of jams. Most recently, I powered out of a parking spot that was completely snow covered, and had 12" frozen snow banks surrounding it on all exits. Would have been still there if I had 2wd.

Fog lights are very good.

I don't use the sunroof but its good for me as I like the extra light.

Power tailgate rocks as does the back up camera and radar.

Hope this gives you some ideas. I am glad I got the LE 4x4. I think the LE gives you a good bang for the buck with regards to usable options for the price. The only change I would have done now is gotten the NAV and DVD aftermarket, but again, I installed this stuff for a living. It is nice to have it all integrated into the system and under one warranty.

I echo the comments. I personally love the sunroof, when I can use it (which in Chicago is not very often).

One thing that came with my truck that I would have never in a million years put on, was a bug deflector. And wouldn't you know...it actually works!

Yes, I want one. But I'm going to get a stainless steel lund version.

My only concern is fuel encomy. Since the Armada gets fairly poor ratings already, I'd be worried that I'd drop 2+ MPG more with a 4x4.

A 2 mpg difference = about $20 a month. You won't notice.

I wish they would add power folding mirrors. I had an '04 Navigator Ultimate package with these and it was a nice feature. I don't regret trading my Navigator for the Armada as it was no where near as fun to drive/responsive. On top of being slower, I was getting about 11 mpg, which was a joke. I also was constantly worried about getting it dirty. The Armada is a much better truck.

They have those on '06 and also have added the turn signal to the mirrors.
