Is there a way to run the vin number to find out all the options that came with my truck since I don't have the window sticker?

if you want the build sheet then go to the gm website, select your brand, then go to chat and the chat rep can email you the build sheet. the chat service is open m-f 8-4 eastern time and 1/2 the day on Saturdays, no chat on Sundays.

One of the most accurate is to get the girl from GM to email it to you. The most accurate is to take a picture of your RPO sheet and create a spread sheet to identify all the codes. You can also pay $5 or so to compnine.com and they will send you the RPO Sheet with explanations for 4 or 5 VINs for that price, been a few years since I needed their services.

If the 8th digit of your VIN is "Z" then, unless it's been replaced, you have an L59 Flex Fuel 5.3L engine.

like noted above
the 8th digit denotes engine
most popular is vin T (5.3), if it is a 4.8 then it will be vin V
vin Z should be flex fuel 5.3, my 05 is a Z but I don't think it has flexfuel capability
