    What's that supposed to mean? My '97 Sierra had the same style wheele molding and that truck was not cheap either. BTW nobody pays $32k

    OK keep your pants on...so the list was 32k, got it for 29K, anyway, my F150 had much better trim. The entire trim around the wheel wells were much wider and thciker and were incorporated into the fender. This thin stck on trim is already coming off my 2011 Tacoma and I just got it last week.

    I have very few complaints, and even fewer that I would consider major, but here are the ones I can think of at the moment:

    -lousy mpgs for such a light vehicle
    -IFS
    -no diesel available
    -no factory leather interior available
    -no factory sunroof/moonroof available
    -no factory in-dash navigation available
    -no factory 120V power outlet inside cab
    -tick tick tick tick tick tick
    -weaksauce front differential bearings that cause vibes
    -cloth seats get dirty if you so much as give them a dirty look
    -amber colored panel lights
    -lack of illuminated buttons/dials (such as 4x4 selector)
    -no fuel economy readout
    -have to press the unlock button on keyfob at least twice to unlock all doors
    -requires lots of brake pedal pressure to stay stopped at a red light
    -no power rear sliding window

    That's it. Pretty much everything I can live with (except the front diff bearing), and at the end of the day I love my Taco to the point of OCD :p

    I can't believe there are so many complaints about the factory stereo. I assume you guys must be talking about the non-JBL? The only thing that's bad about the JBL system is the factory sub, but after replacing that with my own sub, my stock stereo overall sounds better than the stock Bose in my gf's Benz (which we both agree with).

    Toyota colors. Same with SCION. They come out with one good one every 10 years tops. I don't want neon, but a nice green or something would be nice.

    SUper tempted to have it painted. But nothing is as good as factory paint.

    No mods....yet. Just came off lease a couple months ago.
    Only faults I can find:
    Seats are kinda low, not a killer though
    "Thump" when I take it out of 4WD sometimes
    Rear drums

    None of these are deal killers though. It would take me hours to list all the stuff I LIKE. Must be lucky because mine doesn't tick-tick-tick. 108K and I still get 18-21 MPG as advertised. Easiest truck to park I've ever had. I love the damn thing...Rick

    So far my only complaint is the A/C heater blower fan switch/resistor/fan motor. I have changed the resistor three times and the blower motor, it works for a while then quits again only to work on the Max setting,once in a while it will work on the other settings,mechanic keeps telling me change the resistor and blower,how many times do i need to do this ,there has to be something cause\ing them to go out so often,i changed the resistor twice in one year,and then blower and resitor and it only worked for 6 months untill it was right back to the same thing,ANYONE have a solution or idea what can be causing this .

    Can't stand the cheap sounding stereo (non-JBL system). The rugged fails are pretty noisy and door handles feel cheap. It would also be nice if XM was standard like most new vehicles these days. Other than that I'm good with everything else!
