“I purchased truck 11/2010 truck drove fine for the first yr. Pulling very light freight always the truck became very hard to control. Truck dances, hops, bounce etc. I have had suspension work done and the prob has not improved. I don't get irregular tire wear no physical signs that can be seen, just poor performance. I would not buy another one. The engine/ trans, no complaints, only the drivability.”
