2.5 ton Goodman GSX-13, 13 seer unit.
I didn't see the justification for spending extra on the 16 seer. The sales rep told me that in Alberta, we don't run the units enough to see the energy savings, and the 16 was like $800 more. The unit I have is also not really that loud, even standing next to it.
They included a winter cover, and the cost was about $3500 plus tax. That included the installation, city permit, wall brackets, the electrical disconnect switch outside, everything.
I also had to pay an extra $500 for them to do an electrical subpanel because our panel had no vacant breakers, but that was going to be a thing no matter which installer I went with.
I went with Action Furnace because their people seemed to be the most upfront and honest, and they include labor in the 10 year warranty (most do not!), and they don't require an annual inspection to keep the warranty valid.
The guy who came out to do the installation was great too. He went through every single detail when he was done and was happy to answer any questions we had, both during and after the install.
One of my coworkers (along with others in this thread) also had a unit installed by Action, and had nothing but good things to say. I'd highly recommend them.
If you're going to do it, my advice would be to decide soon, as all of the HVAC companies are going to be getting really busy now.
