Thanks, my pops drilled into my head at a very early age to take care of your vehicle. Typical dad stuff, "any job worth doing, is worth doing correctly". This pick-up was and still is the first new vehicle I have ever purchased and have always stayed on top of maintenance and preventative maintenance as well. Been pretty lucky so far, just routine wear and tear items.

I was able to get 285k out of the transmission before loosing revers and needing it to be rebuilt. Had a local transmission shop overhaul it and provided a 3yr/100K warranty to boot. Out of all of the other vehicles I've owned, this truck has always been the reliable one.
