Having some mechanical issues with new truck. Frustrating but still, it’s my truck,I’m new here, and it’s appropriate to introduce myself here. Beautiful truck though. Had a tough time making decision on color but MGM looks awesome and doesn’t stand out like some of the brighter colors. 5,300 miles on it right now. Averaging about 20mpg overall. Power is there if reved way up. Have latest transmission tsb, I accept the widely known shifting anomaly’s. I just always drive in S mode. And sometimes with ECT button. Here are some pics from last summer (if I can make it happen). No mods yet- (ARE cap,audio upgrades, OV tune,wheels,tires)But mods will happen if mechanical issues get sorted out.
