A/c went out when purchased and bad flex pipe.
Oil pan gasket blew 4 months later.
Motor blew up 3 weeks later.
Needed a front end alignment.
Changed flex pipe 3 times never fixed.
This truck is easy on the eyes, but hard on the wallet.
I love the style, but starts to fall apart and is very underpowered. It don't get that great of mpg and I dread hills due to no power. The flex pipe sounds horrible when it goes out and is hard to replace since they all go bad. The handling isn't too bad its pretty accurate. There's not much acceleration in 3rd gear and shifts kinda hard.
Looks like the guy whom you bought or inherited from didn't take care of the truck very well. Although you should have never bought the 4 cyl engine anyhow, they are notorious for being underpowered. 120hp to move around a 3600lb. truck, what do you expect?
