    you should buy a motorcycle, SxS or atv where they all give you a 6-12 month warranty, tops.

    Well on most things Milwaukee the warranty is much longer. But that also is lame that those things have short warranties as well

    Funny you ask that. Pop-ups actually can be lifted with bigger tires put on. My dad actually lifted his so he could go off the beaten path better, although he didn't change the tire size yet.

    I wonder how big I can go before they'll rub? :D

    In all seriousness, I did look in the wheel wells to see if I could fit a larger tire, mostly for better on road handling. But, a matching set of MT's would look pretty slick on there.

    Maine is pretty awesome. I bet there are some slightly scratchy trails too.

    So. Many. Stickers.
    Uh.... Never turn your truck on with a cooler line disconnected. ATF everywhere.... Lol

    I mean if I pop a cooler line to check and your fluid is clear red and doesn't smell like ass, you get a thumbs up from me. Same with the oil, power steering and anything else we could do a quick check on without tearing the truck apart. Granted not all dealers are thorough and not all sales. People actually ask the text to look over things so... Your discussion is advised.

    If it's low then there's a leak. Freon doesn't actually degrade.

    Do they still use Freon?
