    Need help breaking the rules.

    This is a good suggestion. It might make loading and unloading easier too.

    Need help breaking the rules.

    I guess what I'd like to know is how strict the payload sticker is. I know some things like the fuel gauge have wiggle room built in.

    I hadn't thought of that. Gas is so cheap now though I don't mind two trips (4 hrs) but three trips (6 hours) wouldn't be fun.

    I have a crew cab in tradesmen trim with a 2wd V8 if you're curious. I'm sure the engine is not the weak point in this equation but rather the suspension and chassis.

    Need help breaking the rules.

    I found a great deal on tile flooring about an hour away. I'd like to pick it all up in two trips instead of three. The total weight of the tile is 4,288 lbs. My truck's sticker says the weight of passengers and cargo shouldn't exceed 1,824. I weigh 200. If I do two trips, that's 2,144 lbs...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    Interesting points. To be the devil's advocate, I might rather add oil to an engine than replaced snapped exhaust manifold bolts.

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    It sure doesn't feel like I have the upper hand in the service department talking about brake squeal or the highway vibration.

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    In Ohio, the interest rate can legally be marked by the dealer up to 1% above the rate offered by the lender. I ask for the "call back" sheet to see what the lender offered and I ask how much the dealer is marking up the rate. Every time I've asked, they've had the markup at the full 1%. This...

    How to remove driver's side dash speaker

    Any idea what to do if the screw is stripped? It felt like it was screwing into a plastic piece. I don't think the screw would be stripped as much as the piece it's going in to.

    How to remove driver's side dash speaker

    I have a Tradesman with the lowest level system. This is a picture from someone else's upgraded system, but I circled the screw that was loose in my truck.

    How to remove driver's side dash speaker

    Thank you so much!! I used a plastic paint scraper to pry off the cover very easily. I saw three screws, the most rearward of which was loose enough that you could wiggle it and make noise. I tightened it, but it almost felt stripped. I left the cover off to drive and listen for it. I appreciate...

    How to remove driver's side dash speaker

    I have a rattle in what I think is the dash speaker on the driver's side. Is this easy to remove and inspect or should I go to the dreaded dealer?

    Is it possible to add heated regular mirrors in place of town mirrors?

    Interesting. I assumed the heat was automatic.

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    If there are fewer trucks to buy the competition among buyers may go up as the options buyers want become harder to find. If people stop buying vehicles altogether that may drive prices down, but I don't think supply issues will benefit the consumer.

    0% for 84 Months

    Got an email advertising zero percent financing for seven years. I wonder if there is a catch and what rebates you lose by doing this. Could someone refinance at this rate?

    Is it possible to add heated regular mirrors in place of town mirrors?

    I haven't seen that thread. Can you share the name of the thread or a link?

    Is it possible to add heated regular mirrors in place of town mirrors?

    I replaced my tow mirrors with regular, heated ones and they do not seem to heat.

    Show off your pinstripes!

    It stood out a lot from the all black truck, but I don't think it looked bad. Thanks for sharing!
