Truck performed as promised. Plenty of power for pulling a loaded 4 X 8 trailer with a fully loaded full sized box. Very little mechanical problems. Will buy another soon.

Numerous problems from A/C to transmission, steering box, front end bounces uncontrolably when you hit a bump over 25 mph, and won't stop until vehicle comes to a complete stop. Had the stabilizer strut replaced as a possible cause but it continues to happen. When new rear window was a constant water leak problem.

Bought this as a medium duty truck, hauled across the US a buncha times. Only changed the oil, cleaned the air-filter, and added diesel - it never slowed down !!! Looked good, worked good - it hit the mark for value/performance.
