How are you guys doing finding replacement parts? Both factory and aftermarket? I've read a few stories of waiting 7 weeks for things like door panels etc. I'm looking at an 08 but don't want to be stuck holding the bag if something goes wrong in the future.

I haven't needed anything yet, mine is an 09.

2008 and 2009 are much easier to find parts for. I guess they made less trucks and parts production was still the same. It seems they stopped making parts for 2003 - 2007 a few years ago.

Mechanical parts are still easy to find, but trim pieces are getting more difficult to find. I had to replace the center console cover and it took 3 weeks to get an NOS one in.

Lack of trim is currently up through the '07's. Being that they are pretty much the same from '03 - '07. I am still looking for an '07 center pillar that I cannot find because they stopped making them already. Don't think you will have any problems with the '08 as of yet.
