The truck runs great, all the controls and everything works great. For full disclosure, these are the only issues with the truck:- clear coat on bed rail on top of wheel well is starting to peel- the front wheel center cap on the passenger side is damaged from hugging a curb- engine has a bit of blow-by when you open the oil fill cap- the air suspension is in great shape overall, but some bushings need to be replaced as part of regular maintenance.
Always very well maintained and parts were replaced right away if there were issues.
