I had mine as a DD for a lil over a year...Rain is either scary or VERY fun...depending on how you look at it....snow? yeah right. A 285 lo pro street tire that will most likely be bald by the time the next snow season arrives....on a 2WD weighing barely over 4,000lbs that is putting down over 400lb ft of tq.....in the snow. Those tires barely hook on cold pavement when they are NEW let alone rain and snow. The gas mileage is absolute SHIT. The connecting rods are crap and want to split at about 450rwhp when you start modding them.BUT, they are fun trucks! Nothing like blowing ear drums with the side exhaust as you waste the GT next to you with a (small) load of lumber in the bed. Mine ran 13.55 @ 105.00 consistently, got 10mpg around town, and wasn't even PULLIED! I traded it in on a Lexus IS300. The two best days I had with that truck were the day I bought it and the day i sold it.....</blockquote>
