"A street light brawler!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Fuel pump broke.

Recall for rear brake lines, dealer replaced.

Tires wear, quickly replaced at 24,000 miles.

General comments?

The regular cab R/T handles very well and accelerates even better, very fun to drive.

Gas mileage is a problem at 12mpg around town, but the extra money spent on gas is well worth it.

About the tire tread life, I have a similar truck and have found that more expensive "performance" tires actually last nearly twice as long.

Bought mine with 16k miles on it. The Michelin Pilots were new then and I replaced them at 58k. You get what you pay for.

I will be getting an R/T Club Cab from my grandmother. What do I need to look out for? Is there any major problems with these trucks at 50,000 miles or do I need to worry? Please let me know at eveilkidkiller@yahoo.com.
