    What do you do with all the free time you save from writing 'chk' instead of 'check?' Curious minds want to know.

    Raptor 4" oval rails, OEM door sill protectors, totally debadged, OEM mud guards, OEM bed mat, OEM S/S tail pipe extension, BDT tailgate letters, Weather Tech sun screen.
    The dealer that has serviced mine and performed all the minor repairs such as replacing window seal on driver's side rear door, plugs in frame (TSB), transmission fluid check and transmission reflash (TSB), and replaced a squeaking bushing on front passenger's side was Bondy's Toyota in Enterprise, AL. Never had to wait more than 45 minutes (except for the transmission fluid check which required an overnight stay for the truck) and never gave me any sh!t about checking/fixing any of the issues. I didn't even buy the vehicle from them as it came from a dealer in GA though a friend of mine who broker's high end vehicles. The first issue I had was the rear door window seal that bulged out at the top. Showed it to the dealer in Montgomery, AL and the female service writer blew me off with the "that's normal" comment. The service writer in Enterprise, AL looked at it, called over his top tech, and both agreed...that sucks. Ordered a new seal, changed it out, and it fit great. The last "fix" (squeaking bushing) was done at 7K and I now have 17K on the clock with no problems since....keeping my fingers crossed:fingerscrossed:. BTW, I learned about all the issues above from members on TW:cheers:!
