"Wide body." It's a nice way of saying fat.

I just can't see living in the great white north with one 4wd vehicle with 2 working parents and kids. A beater pickup or SUV would have to accompany that fancy new hot rod.

Wore out TBSS? How many Km? you got on yours?

My rainier has 400K km on it and it's not wore out at ALL

400K km sounds more impressive than 250k miles

My #1 rule has always been: Wash it, then drive it.

Took the girls to baseball... and then did some tailgating.

This is the whole reason I built this car.

Drove the wagon to the office today - I left at around 0545hrs, it was very foggy, traffic was light and the air was cool. The car just cruised along in the left lane as though it was nothing. I must say that other than the tires rubbing the fender liners at full lock when parking the new UCAs (and the added negative camber) made the car a dream to ride in. I am looking forward to getting some 245s or 255s up front.

So, there's no rod knock?

If there is - it hasn't gotten any worse, and I honestly stopped caring. I am just trying to enjoy my summer; especially considering I had just spent four of the last seven weeks working from home and hadn't left the house much (other than 7 minute trips into town).

Piston slap- my Silverado has done it since I got it with 33,000mi on it. It's at 256k, now.

I knew it was a fake @$$ story from Jump St!!!!!!

Drive it till it sounds like rocks in a Folgers can, then hammer down for a glorious death.
