Details! lol
The transmission had the typical NV4500 issues with 5th coming off the shaft and synchronizers. It's been worked on twice. ***** cylinder leaked one and necessitated replacing the clutch. The interior is mainly brittle plastics and electric components. It's a pretty solid, if somewhat fragile truck compared to the best truck I ever had; a '96 F250. Better than the the 2G Ram 1500 I had just before it, though.

I'm the original owner, and although I worked the truck daily pulling a trailer for the first seven years, I never abused it nor failed to do routine maintenance. I do need to do some mechanical stuff to the engine, but I attribute that to wear. At this point, I'm kinda curious as to how long it'll go on the original engine.

He has an 07 that's why. Mine looks just like your Canuck one with just the mph/kmh flipped
