The wiper arms deally i can live with but what bugs me is the slope of the windshield, airodynamics or whatever it is that causes the wipers not to actually wipe or stay in contact with the glass at any speed over 40mph. Rain-X does help...but doesn't solve the initial problem. Other than than I'm quite pleased.

Hmmm,
Wind noise at 70+MPH, rear brakes that don't self adjust, and the fact that I can't keep the front end aligned
Oh yeah, and the steering wheel thing too.......

Few things for me...
1. No grab handle standard in 4x4's above passenger head
2. Windshield wipers don't wipe very well **as stated above
3. Front end doesn't like staying aligned ** as stated above
4. LSD is VERY Limited, as in isn't worth the money.
5. People think Ford own Cummins....ignorance is rampant!

Stupid puke bottle. Trying to get the new oil filter started. Not enough power in the back seat speakers to really balance out the stereo. The jerk wads leaving out my back seat cupholders!

Fixed the oil filter problem, went with the dual remote mounted below the radiator core support.
Fixed the rear speaker thing too, two Pioneer 120 watt sixes in the back and two Pioneer 6x9's in the front powered by a 400 watt Crossfire along with a 10 inch DVC band pass on the back seat powered by it's own 300 watt Crosfire.
Back seat cup holders are there.
I use the theory that if ya don't like it, change it.
Fixed the burnt piston thing too, putting in all new Arias forged pistons.
