Faults:

Alternator pulley broke.

Oil cooler line leaked.

Driver's Seat broke, fixed with a home made bracket for $0.50.

Fuel economy wasn't that great.

General Comments:

I loved this truck sooooo much.

I wanted to keep it, but couldn't afford the gas & traded it in for a smaller more fuel efficient.

The cabin has plenty of space yet doesn't feel empty.

All the extras worked as if it was new. Even the AC!

Faults:

Recently the air conditioner compressor would not turn on. The wire in the engine compartment had been disconnected or severed. I did not waste time to find it, I just ran a new wire.

Leaks engine oil from a line I have yet to find. Not a bad leak though. I don't have to add oil between changes.

General Comments:

The cloth seats are great. A little wear from getting in and out, but still in great shape.

Very comfortable ride and extremely reliable. Never left me stranded and starts up every time.

Every thing power works like brand new. I have never had to replace and switches.

Now that I have 2 kids I wish it had seating for 6. It would be nice to have that extra seat in the middle up front. My parents or In-laws go with us quite often. So they have to take their own car also.

I will definitely will buy another one when this one starts to fail.

Faults:

Transmission blew at 116,235 miles. Lost all gears.

Universal Joint went at 114,000 miles.

General Comments:

Powerful, quiet (not anymore due to flowmaster).

Cold Air Conditioning

Smooth Power

Like driving a dump truck, but a pleasurable dump truck.

Commanding seat position

Gives you impression that your safe, you can feel the weight of the beams in the doors.

Faults:

4x4 Quit working.

Right front axle seal leaked.

Front engine seal leaked.

AC Controller on the dash quit working.

Steering wheel "leather" bubbled up.

Rear brakes won't adjust correctly. Went through two sets of front pads and warped one set of rotors with almost no wear on the rear brakes.

Un greasable rear U joint went out early on.

Window and door lock switches had to be replaced.

Driver seat broke loose from the base. Had to fix with heavier metal.

Turns signals no longer self cancel.

Both rear wheel seals failed and soaked the brake pads with gear oil.

General Comments:

The only good things I can say about this vehicle are that it has plenty of power, has never failed to get me anywhere.

The overall design quality of this vehicle is very poor.

The front seats are poorly designed and offer no head restraint even with the headrests in the full up position.

The dash is all hard plastic.

The spare tire eats up a lot of room inside the back.

Faults:

Faulty turn signal.

Noisy exhaust ("groaning" sound at idle).

General Comments:

Truck has been put to the test numerous times, and performed extremely well.

Fast, nimble, & fun to drive.

Faults:

You name it. Seems like the only thing that I did not have a problem with was the engine.

The brakes never worked right.

The transmissions, yes plural, were all sloppy.

The interior (plastic) trim rattled, squeaked and fell off.

The outside paint (emerald green) was flaking.

The alloys were turning a funny yellow color.

Needless to say this was one of the worst experiences that I have ever had with an automobile since my 1988 VW Jetta.

General Comments:

Good look and junky execution.
