Gawd, will an earlier model grille fit on that truck? That thing is taking a big bite out of the public sense of humor--which I need to keep people from throwing rocks at my old Civic.

I just want to drive something that doesn't make me feel like I should have an attitude problem. That grille is way too much personality for me. It looks like the truck is going to start unfolding right there, turn into a 20' robot and start shooting rockets.

Ramps, or the deck tilts. Nice 08'/09', be prepared to get the rad replaced....done it 3 times now on my old mans, it's only got 120k and is highway driven.

It was such a huge recall they say they're backordered on parts. They keep replacing it with the same old rad, hopefully it'll get fixed properly before it's miled out and get's sold to someone without a warranty. And ya, thats where it leaks, lol....that and the mystery rear pinion seal leak....taken it back twice for a leak, still looks like the same seal to me. I'm damn tempted to paint marker/dimple it to see if they actually replace it. He put's 10-12k on it a month, so stuff shows up quick.

Now, enough thread hijacking....he's got a diablo sport tuner on his truck that he leaves at the 50hp setting and he's gained 4mpg with no other mods. Well worth the $$$, however mileage is only about +2 at 80hp, and it goes in the hole on extreme/160hp setting.
