    I dislike all the people grasping at TSBs like they have some right to have a perfectly working part replaced without it going bad.

    Added extra awesomeness to its original awesomeness.
    There is a removable ash tray that fits into the small cup holder behind the shifter.

    my steering still works but they think i should listen to this banging rather than do the TSB. Who put you in charge?

    painted door handles, bilstein 5100's front and back, K&N air filter. Precision power component speakers and Kenwood deck.

    look up Vaporized fuel injection system. Are you ok with around 300mpg. John watson did this on a 1992 geo storm and went 14.6 miles on 4 ounces of 87 octane fuel. = 463mpg.

    Surprised they haven't killed him like Tom Ogle.

    Well after having the truck for a few months I am glad I did not spend over 20K for it, I can't wrap my mind around $27k-30K for this truck considering the build design (as opposed to quality). Excessive wind noise, Engine ticking, Dull painted fender flares tht do not match the metal paint....( Thankfully, I don't have them) Noisy electric motors, paper thin tail gate, plastic bed. None of the features we have come used to like locking gas cover, locking glove box, locking tail gate even....small cheap items that really should be on a $27K vehicle of ANY kind. Don't really need 10 cup holders...

    It just feels like a GREAT $20K-$24K truck. I love it and will get another, but would never pay more than $23K for one.

    Mine has 25K miles. I had an opportunity to tst drive a 2011 this past weekened and it really wasn't all that much better for another 7 Gs. I would bet like all pick ups there is a ton of profit for TMC in these trucks.

    neglect, mostly.
    we got the same truck. you've been leveled and have a probably slightly more aggressive tread, but you should still be getting 15-16. calm down a little with that right foot.
