Great Truck.

Reliability is its selling point. I have nearly 200k miles on mine and the only major expense has been a new rack and pinion steering rack. $1100. The paint for 2006 model year is horrendous. Mine is black and the paint on the hood and top has totally cracked, flaked, or peeled off all the way down to the metal. That’s a $6000

paint job, or $3700 if you go to Maaco. Motor and transmission has been flawless if properly maintained. Oil changes ever 5000 miles is a must. The interior cloth is wearing pretty well with the exception of the driver’s seat, but that’s understandable considering my butt has slid into the seat probably 5000 times. The side edge is showing a lot of wear and tear. The ride is stiff, more than most truck, but I’ve gotten use to it. Would I buy another one? Yes, in a minute, but I’d probably pay more attention to the paint next time. Excellent Truck!!!!!
