    Follow up to yesterday's ordeal, trailer lights now rewired and working as well as brakes. fuckyeah.sldprt But forgot to buy fuses for the cruiser after blowing one probing for a brake signal for the controller yesterday, so I rode around with no tunes as I had to pilfer the radio fuse for brake lights. wellshit.htm But all in all not too bad to fix a trailer wiring harness in an afternoon, easier than wiring the brake controller yesterday.

    Noooo! Don't let that 3rd gen garbage invade the perfection that is gen 1! I swear, they let Toyota GODS create the first gen. Then, they let millennial shitbags design the third gen...

    They may have looked like crap but they brought Mopar out of the grave and back to relevance. Reliable economy vehicles are the lasting way to a consumers heart. Right now they don't have any and they're headed right back to the mistakes of the past.

    Depends on the point in history you decide to have a look with them. Can't deny there are still an assload of 90s Town & Country / Grand Caravan vans out there still, pretty much any K platform vehicle can be kept on the road with normal maint, or ductape.

    Have to say my 16 kicks my 04's ass in looks and performance.

    But the 04 stays in the family, it's been a great little truck.

    All of mine have been great but really loved the look of my 91.
