There was a post in not too long ago where someone had all their body rubbers replace, looked fine on the truck but once they pulled them off they were rock hard and smaller than the replacements. Rubber has a lifespan even with good climate it’s got 2,000lbs sitting on it.
I thought the same about my 4R until I found out I had to replace the whole LED tail light instead of a bulb 🤣
I test drove a 99, 04, 06. I dont rev enough to notice the VVTI, the 5 speed is a must for me. Unless I find a steal.
