Comments:
Purchased in 2010 with 28,000 miles. Have been pretty happy with it and have so far needed to fix an AC leak and replace a front hub/bearing. This truck is basically new to me and I have very little time to work on it, go wheeling, or anything else really.
I just hit 70,000 miles and she is still running strong. I have done some minor maintenance and fixed a few small things here and there but everything has been great over the years. Finally starting to get some stuff done recently. Did my first oil change in about 10 years today (2/20/12)

Chipmunk Mod:
Trunk Tie Downs:
Used a D-Ring purchased from Lowes. For each tie down: 4 large washers (i suggest the largest diameter that will fit in the channel), 2 small washers (if the center hole for your bolt is too large so your bolt does not fit through washers), 2 medium sized washers for above the channel, 2 nylon lock nuts.
When tightened the tie downs will clamp to the metal channel. They do not rattle but next time I would bedline or plastidip them.
