A dealership service writer once told me I needed a new exhaust system -- engine "Y" pipe to bumper -- for my '86 Suby wagon. Something in the neighborhood of $1200, as I recall. Instead, I got a local muffler shop owner to do a bit of welding, for under fifty bucks.
Anytime a dealership tells you you need a whole new anything, keep going. I second Earthworm's motion that you get another opinion.
