    Thanks! Luckily my credit union has taken care of my loan already. WTF is permaplate? They'll have about an hour to match or beat my already signed paperwork for the same damn truck or ill just come back to Orlando and take the black one I was offered. I'll let you guys know how it goes. I just really want the gray.

    So anyone have some suggestions on my recent problem?

    Driving along and I hear a squeak from somewhere under or near the rear of the truck. When I let off the gas it was sort of chirping. Now it's progressed to when I accelerate it starts to make noise too. I don't think it's the ujoints cause there's no play in the driveshaft. Buddy of mine suggested jacking up the rear and spinning the shaft to see the wheels spin. But not sure exactly what that'll do. Looked at east coast gear supply into maybe getting a new rebuilt 3rd. member geared and everything but didn't see them on thier site. If I pull off the 3rd member what is there to look for or at to see if anything is wrong? I know I'm missing a trans mount but it's been missing for a while now. Oh and I have vibrations around 50-55mph. So lost on this but afraid of breaking down.

    from a mechanic end, it's a terrible dealership. i brought my truck there about 4 years ago for them to look a rear end vibration, before i knew too much about these trucks. turns out i had the wrong proportion of LSD addative, which caused a shutter at takeoff. their techs claimed that the "extra power" i had (from a k&n drop in, and a half assed flowmaster install) was causing the it.......bunch of retards.

    their parts department is also pretty pricey (especially considering the relative cost of living in the area). they wanted $60 for an idler pulley.

    no personal experience with the sales department, but they would appear to be just as bad.
