Whoohoooo. Looks like I am the only one who truly beats on their truck. I guess that is why mine has been out of service since August

Man ... I drive mine like I stole it. In my 5 mile commute to work I usually stick my foot in it 4 times at least. THe trip home is usually the scenic route, so there's more there. I wonder if this has much to do with my 10.39 mpg last time I filled up.
