I bought this truck in May of 2001 with 25K on it in the state of Arizona. I drove it for few years out west. June of 2003 I drove back to my hone state of NY. The winter months have taken a toll on rear wheel wells but over all truck is in great shape. I have replace normal parts over the years. At about 167k I had to replace timing chain that broke going down the road. Everyone and there brother told me I shouldn’t attempt to fix. I found a friend to do the job after many mechanics refused too. And once it was put back together it ran as it did the day I bought it. Its currently still on the original clutch. Many years ago I bought life time warranty parts on shocks, starter, alternator used shocks 4 times, starter once, alternator once. Have to say I’ve gotten my money out of this truck 10 fold.

We bought this PU new. It has been one of the most reliable vehicles we've ever owned. We have used it and abused it for 12+ years, it's still running and still looks great, with only routine maintenance. Just recently began having air conditioner issues and oil and transmission leaks. I'll have it repaired and keep driving it! The odometer stopped working four years ago, at that time it read 180k, so I'm sure we're well over the 200k mark. This little truck was so worth the money we spent on it!
