    You'll buy another one some other day, this isn't a total goodbye... No one actually leaves the Taco community, its more of just a short vacation away, they always bring you back.

    Do you have pictures? I would love to see them. My taco was in a crash last july, not my fault, but caused 12k in damage, worth 20k at the time, and insurance didn't want to total...

    before you buy any 2014 or 2015 GM truck you better do serious research on them.

    one out of 5 are lemons and they refuse to fix them forcing people to sue to make them buy them back.

    just saying if you get the one out of five that's a vibrator then it takes a year and a lawsuit to get out of it because there is no way to fix them.

    the vibration issue is the worst of all the problems they have
