I am the second owner of this truck and I've had it for almost 10 years (originally titled in PA). In that time, it has been extremely reliable and it has always started – it literally runs and shifts like new!  I am a maintenance fanatic and I take exceptional care of my vehicles. It has been waxed and detailed on a regular basis (I even wax the door jambs and apply dressing to the rubber weather-stripping ) and I vacuum the interior every 2 or 3 weeks. I’m the kind of guy who calls out sick from work, and then spends the entire day detailing his truck. That’s my idea of fun! The carpeting is very clean (I always use floor mats) and there are no stains on the upholstery (I have always kept a towel on the seats to protect them). I am also a non-smoker. I purchased the truck with 35K miles and I have always used full-synthetic motor oil. I lubricate the door hinges every few weeks. The bed has some scratching, but with no dents or rust, and it has basically only been used to carry such things as groceries, light items, and the occasional piece of furniture. It has never been used to carry things such as gravel or dirt. From 2007 to 2013, the truck was titled in Florida where I lived at that time. Until this day, it has always been garage kept and when I lived in Florida, it was even parked during the day in my employer’s parking garage. And when it’s parked outside, I always us a sun shield to protect the dash. It has not been driven in snow since 2007. The undercarriage is very clean, and the body panels have absolutely no evidence of rust.

Negatively speaking, there is a small approximate 3/8-inch “star” from a stone chip in the lower center of the windshield. I had it professionally repaired when it happened 5 years ago and it has never gotten any bigger. It is small and barely noticeable. The front bumper and hood do have some minor roadway stone chipping typical of a vehicle of this age, however, the original paint is as shiny as new and all body panels are very straight with hardly a ding to be found (I’m always careful about where I park). Otherwise, everything works as it should.
