Resale value and cost of tires

[clydecpa]

I hate to be the practical one, and all but...

My wife has given the go ahead for me to acquire a new H3, and I've got a GM supplier # to take about $3k off so that's cool. My issues are as follows:

1)I want a 5-speed manual trans., but worry that it will be a bigger deduct later when I go to sell/trade

2)Considering the Adv. package to go with the Lux...has anyone priced how much replacement tires will cost???
