I had this truck while spending time in Manitoba. Very good when the 4-wheel drive was needed but that was about it. The steering was quite touchy, and the interior cab was way too small. If you were a front passenger or a rear passenger, it didn't matter, because your knees would still be touching your chin...

Pros — Great for plowing over manitoba snow piles!
Cons — Cab too small...not enough places to store your beer...

Terrible reliability. Every time I turned around, I was replacing something on this truck. Only thing I missed about it when I sold it was the 5-speed tranny.

Pros — Somewhat fast (even with the 3.9L V6)
Looks pretty good even today
Cons — Horrendous reliability
Interior was horrible

Only thing I dont like about trucks is that poeple would throw their trash in the back of my bed.
