i am buying a new truck, but worry that the dealer is including options into the price that dont actually exist. my problem is that i dont know how to find out what options are actually there. the dealer says there is premium wheels & custom bumper. It doesnt look like it to me, but then again i have no way of knowing. i dont even know how to check for ABS, other that the light that is supposed to come on the dash when you start the engine. Am i walking into some kind of scam. your thoughts and experience are greatly appreciated

Is that "new" as in "new to you," as opposed to a 2007? If so, the truck came with steel wheels. If it has aluminum ones, they are premium. If the ABS light comes on on the dash, it should have ABS. Drive it onto some sand or dirt (even the road side) and slam on brakes. You should hear a fairly loud vibration noise (very fast) and feel a fast vibration in the brake pedal. If you do, the ABS is there and operating. The bumper is a little harder to check. If you want to email me the VIN #, I will run it and see if I can determine what the truck was sold with.
