Truck Opinions....

I do like my GMC 1500 AT4. Matter of fact we have decided that when we replace my wife’s vehicle she is going to take it and I will buy a 2500 version. Have a little less than 80k on the clock. Only issue I have had has been with the tail gate radio. Ended up not being the truck causing the issue. It was a buddy’s trailer was wired wrong and I kept burning the radio up every time I would use his trailer. GM was pretty good to deal with. They replaced the radio twice under warranty. They also put in an extra inline fuse to save any additional issues. Extended all electronics warranty an extra 2 years just in case.

I do have one open recall and one TSB that I need to make an appointment for. Both are unique to the 3.0 duramax. TSB is a software update to fix #6 glow plug sensor issue. The recall is for transmission valve. Premature wear causing rear wheel lock up on some trucks. GM has been messaging me regularly reminding me to make an appointment. Guess I should do it soon.

Vehicles are like buying hotdogs. Sure you could just eat it plain, but what is the fun in that. Gotta make it your own. Cook it up, toast the bun, cover it in sauerkraut, jalapeños and mustard. Make it something. Maybe make the next one covered in chili and cheese.

Every freaking Brand,model is having recalls and problems... Talked to a guy the other day who has a Toyota... Nothing but issues every day... Friend was at a Wawa yesterday he said there was a fleet of 5 new Chevy vans parked on the side with one having its hood up... He said smoke pouring out from engine with oil everywhere, puddle on the ground... Something blew... Guy said they just picked them up... That's it.... I'm buying a VW BEETLE and putting roof racks on it....

Fund you a low mileage old model tundra with a 5.7 and make sure you pull a carfax. One owner, never wrecked with service records. Then forget that you wanted a brand new one.

My quick nationwide search showed 82 available with under 25,000 miles
 
Oh boy.... Here's one stopped to get gas this morning at a station the pool business has an acct... So bullshiting with the owner he says his friend recently bought a GMC pickup... Price tag of $105,000.... WTF no way I'd pay that if I had it to spend.... So shortly after picking it up.... THE ENGINE BLEW.... Now here's the kicker... THEY WOULDNT EVEN GIVE HIM A LOANER VEHICLE... In my travels I went by this dealer today.... They have at least 50 pickups on the lot...
