    Hello all,

    Back to driving a truck after almost 10 years, glad I’m back. Picked up my 19 MGM TRD OR DC a few days ago. Hoping my truck proves to be a good one and not problematic; I’ve heard some not so positive comments on here about this new generation. But with 140 miles so far, no real problems yet. I do feel some vibrations at idle through the brake pedal and steering wheel from time to time but from being a car owner, I wouldn’t know if that’s abnormal or not. I’m looking forward to being part of the community here.

    Thanks

    It's a truck. It'll grunt, rumble, sneer more than a car. Have fun with it. Taco's are great trucks.

    I’d at least have the dealer look at it. That way it’s documented.

    Good advice except for the forever part.

    Once these trucks start to get older and maybe actually needing repairs, TW will prove a valuable resource.

    For now, mostly entertainment- that is if you consider people whining endlessly about rear drum brakes and seat adjustment entertainment....jk

    OP- welcome to the shitshow...
