    Just picked up a black 2008 Rugged Trail with 48k. I think I got a pretty good deal and I am super pleased with the truck so far. I have some cosmetic mods in mind and I can't wait to start tinkering. Thanks everyone on this site because I lurked a lot before making my decision.

    I will as soon as I can. How difficult is it to post pics to the forum on an Ipad? I know I shouldn't ask too many questions here, but that's what I will be taking the pics with.
