Havent had any problems yet. Runs great!
Although Im not real satisfied with the 45RFE auto tranny - it normally
shifts too slushy. In retrospect I should have opted for the 5spd manual

Like anything that is new on the market you have to wait for accssories to
become available. But yes, I am sure as time goes on we will be able to get
more parts. I bought my truck in September and there is alot more out there
now than there was then.

Im still trying to figure out what to do with my exhaust without losing too
much bottom end also. From what I understand most of our 4.7 power is lost
in the 3 catalytic converters...therefore, a cat-back system wont do much
for us except make it louder. Ed Halterman's 4.7 Quad cab sounds good with
the Gibson cat-back on it.
