Wow. You sure showed me. Yep, I just pulled a picture from a Google search for "chevy silverado pickup box delete." But, I didn't claim it was the same vehicle, just said "this is closer," so the incorrect assumption is on you.
And, a "long bed" model affects the frame rails, it doesn't imply there's a box. If you took even the time you spent trying to prove me wrong to simply click on the "window sticker" link, you'd see that specific truck has the "Pickup box delete" option. Sure, it's a long bed/long box model, but the box was deleted as an option. That deletes the spare tire, too. Those are usually special ordered for commercial or fleet sales, not the retail lot. Somehow, the dealer got stuck with one (looks like someone may have ordered it to put a salt spreader on the back, it has snow plow prep), so they're heavily discounting it to get rid of it. Heck, if it was a canceled order, some guy's deposit may be subsidizing that discount.
Wanna take another shot?
Sure. As of 2015, all GM full size trucks have that as an option that can be performed at the dealer.
