    I thought the inter net was supposed to make people smarter by offering information on everything. Like simple English language structure, and, punctuation. Is it me? Or has the social stigma of not looking like a retard worn completely off.
    Opinions are just that. Anyone can have one. My opinion is not to listen to idiot fuckbrain ramblings of people that can't express an intelligent thought. Because they simply don't have one.

    FYI = I traded my full size 2014 GMC 1500 LTZ w/ only 26k on the clock. Way too many days in the GMC shop, the interior was horrible, not the least bit user friendly. 5 mirror switches doing 8 functions, were a pain to use, gps didn't talk to me hard to program, center arm rest much higher than the L., using both twisted body towards L. door, large key & fob felt like I had a couple of rocks in my pocket. Limited slip rear never worked and the list goes on & on.
    Almost 4 hours to download a program so the dealer could check the miles, without turning the key on, now it displays when he opens the door. Really, that took almost 4 hours. Two years of the service manager telling me there's nothing wrong. Truth is, they don't have the techs to fix it.
    Having owned a T-100, '04 & '06 Tacoma, none were ever in the shop for anything. I came back to Toyota.

    Now that clears things considerably. I'm way interested in the diesel option on the Twins. They're claiming 30 plus mpgs. That just might make Toyota to do something different under the hood right there. No offense man. Just sick of trying to decipher some people's post.

    I'm not sure I "got a bad one" (2014 GMC) I think they're all like that, my big beef is the interior design. I doubt if the engineer ever sat in, used / drive the truck. He hit "send" and the rest is history.

    You're throwing out the disability card now? You dished out a load of smartass bullshit and are now claiming to be misunderstood.

    You got some minor pushback to your aggressive diatribe that was thinly disguised as a "review". To add further insult you insisted that your opinion superseded all others while declaring impartiality. All you did was spew a mixture of opinion and stupidity as "facts"


    I have a fairly wide range of interests and belong to quite a few forums, but this place takes the prize for the number of mouth breathing retards by a wide margin. [/QUOTE]

    I'm not sure which trim it was, but it had leather. I'm talking about the trim around the vents, stereo, etc. It all seemed very cheap to me.

    who / what are you talking about? somebody said something you don't like? = calling people names doesn't make you right or sound smarter than whatever your rant is about.

    Hey! You can go fuck yourself. I find your statement is totally out of line. I dont make no stupidity on the opinions. Just straight forward fact what i see and touch. I dont make damn long dull report on it, just to cover the certain spot where everyone concerns. Smartass??? Nope i dont see none in my report. I assume you are young green horn prick haven't see the real world of hell yet. Also you calling me a retard???? Then you are blind and dont belong here.

    Yes. I had seen that kind change the engineers do everything behind the computer and not doing real design actually touch and feel. A shame. Seems they dont listen to us who do really drive it
