I love mine so far. It has 1,300 miles on it. Has had various trailers hooked to it since 480 miles. Gas mileage really drops when towing, but it's still better than my 5.7 Tundra I had. It Tows great. It's stable, but could use heavier springs in the back. (I know it's a half ton) I found out today that the brakes coming on when the door is open can be bypassed. It drives great. This is from today. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/MTBhLx92/20260430-141847.jpg)

Cousin has a 25 with the turbo. It's a strong truck, likes fuel, but he has a heavy foot. I like the interior, well laid out. Does have some quirky stuff like can't put the truck in gear with the door open and other little "safety" things that will drive you nuts on a farm. You can press the PKSB switch on the dash (the one with the traffic cone, to the left of the steering wheel) and it will bypass the safety. It will stay turned off. You don't have to press it each time.

If these gas prices don't let up soon, truck prices should plummet. I saw that in 2008 when I picked up a Titan 4wd for less than half the sticker price. They couldn't sell them. HALF of sticker? Well, now that I think about the numbers, it wasn't half. But sticker was something like 47k and I got it for 28k. So, it was a little MORE than half sticker, not a little LESS. It was the only previous year model they had on the lot. MPG was 12 and gas had just skyrocketed to over $4 a gallon. They wanted that truck gone really bad and I just happened to stop by at the right time.
