    Drives like a luxury car, works like a truck

    This truck handles like a luxury sedan, yet it's as hard working as any truck I've ever driven. It's smooth handling makes you forget you're on the logging roads in the mountains. Very comfortable for the entire family, plus full size bed for all the camping gear. Amazing vehicle

    Best Towing Vehicle I have owned

    This vehicle sits for extended periods of time. After nearly 2 years of not operating, I had it serviced, drove it 470 miles at +Interstate speeds with no problem. Three years ago, I towed a 7500# boat 1000 miles, one way, at interstate speeds with no problems. If you need to tow something very far, this is an inexpensive way to do it.

    Piece of .......

    Much trouble with fuel injection system. Dealer could not fix the problem. Spent $400 with no improvement. Had fuel injectors replaced twice. Coil failed because spark plug wires were bad. Hesites when cold. Spent $3000 and it still does not run right.
