    Nice 6spd,V6, very solid truck
    None currently, but I would like a better sounding exhaust and perhaps a cold air pack and some color coded step bars
    My tire pressure light just came on, thought I might have a tire starting to go down, like last time.
    However after checking the pressures. everything is at 29lbs . Does anyone know where that sensor is and is there any way of resetting it? Thanks.

    'cept for the 09's that have only 4 no sensor in the spare.

    Jeff, when you check it, flip it over, makes checking it next time a breeze!

    Same thing happened to me today... fired the truck up to go to work, tire pressure light is on. Checked tires, all at 30psi - is it possible that the light comes on when the temperature gets too low and they are over 29?

    Definately the spare. It happened to me last winter about 2 miles down the highway. I pulled over asap expecting to find a tire losing air. It was only later in the day I remembered the spare which was down to 26PSI when I checked it that night.
