At least I didn't have one with the dreaded transmission problems.
Even with repair costs that could be around 3K in the next year it still beats dropping 50K for a new one. Although the 22mpg highway numbers I'm hearing about do make me want too.
I've finally found a repair shop in Winni truck that actually knows what they are doing. After years of frustration with Meredith Ford and Irwin Ford I'd given up on finding a place that actually has a mechanics that can diagnose and properly fix my diesel truck. The service dept at both mentioned places gave me the impression they really just didn't care. On the bright side neither one comes close to the reputation Autoserve of Tilton has for service, but they do tend to have the absolute best pricing in this area.
