Exactly. I would add, people should do more research before switching from a car to a truck. The windshield complaints, noise complaints, rough ride complaints and fuel economy complaints here crack me up.

I’m 5/23 build week, Been built 39 days. I’m on my 6th estimated delivery window. They are computer generated and don’t account for plant holds.
