    Bought so many GM trucks in my life I can barely count. Bought a Canyon July 2012, new. Liked it fine. GM effed up billing and for four months, hundreds of calls could not fix it, so I decided after another 1 hour call at 3 Friday to buy a Tacoma.

    Went and looked and bought at 9 Saturday. Love it. I also have bought two FJ cruisers from the same salesman, one last Xmas eve.

    I've owned two Supras and two FJ Cruisers and am happy to be a full Toyota family now. Will never, ever buy a GM again. Their service is a joke.

    You mean the FJ? Sorry to say the only one I have is now in the picture section. It is stock, the wife drives it and sadly it has only seen snow, no off roading.

    welcome!

    my one brother just traded his ’09 silverado in on a ’11 tundra. he only had it a little over a year. he got in a crash the 3rd day he had it, and they put it on new frame and everything. ever since he has had small problems with it, and at like 57k were get worse and worse. he took a loss on it i think but, he wanted a tundra in the first place.

    also FJ are bada$$ my best friend has a army green ’11 Trail teams. he put a 3” Top gun customz lift on and i think 295/70(or 75 i don’t remember) R16 BFG A/T's

    1985 and a 1991. Also had a 2010 FJ (wife) and beat the dealer up pretty bad. Traded it for a 13 and got almost what I paid for it. Decided the wife needed a gift to forgive me for being myself! LOL

    I've had 4 S-10 / Sonoma's and beat the hell out of them and never had a problem, ever, put in excess of 100k on every one, towed way above capacity. Just did the required mantainance and kept driving. Got rid of the GMC Canyon because of a total lack of regard for me and their inability to solve a simple problem. 4 months is long enough.

    Yup 22 yrs of GM....had enough. Mine was an 06 Colorado that had the famous cylinder head failure, which the dealer lied to me about a few times..and GM corporate even agreed with me about his shady stuff, yet told me I still had no help on a $2000 repair bill on a "free" job. That and your case show me why they got in so much trouble and needed a bailout.
