GT Force 3.0 better than decent?

I have had my eyes on a 09 Giant Trance X4 but while looking around in REI today I noticed the GT Force 3.0. The bike felt really good and was extremely comfortable. How are the components on this bike? The bike is just under $1600 but it is basically tax free since you get 10% back at the end of the year in REI dividends. A little about me:

6'0" (Large frame)
160 lbs.
In the military so I will be traveling and riding different areas quite a bit. Looking for XC with climbing being a strong factor, but I absolutely love flying back down the mountain for my reward after the climb. I have read that the frame is strong and can handle 3 to 4 foot drops easily as well.

I have never heard of the SR MAG 32, 140mm travel fork.
