    Hey all,

    Very curious to get a head start on preventative truck care.

    Saw a video on the AC hose / frame rust problem and solution.

    Makes me wonder if there is a thread that discusses common flaws with our trucks and how to solve them early on.

    Love the idea of my truck lasting forever.

    What threads should I be following?

    Best,

    Welcome to the TW, follow the maintenance schedule in the owners manual, don’t beat on it. It will give you years of service. Also do any recalls that come up.
