Something with a crew cab and a Duramax...

I see the fix is a durametric plus microswitch replacement most if the time. What ill will befall me if I ignore it?
Unrelated, we own a Nissan armada that I only drive when I have to or when I'm towing the trailer. Otherwise we drive the Acadia. Thinking of selling the armada and buying a truck to use to tow and as a spare vehicle. Want to spend basically nothing. Suggestions? Needs to tow 4000 pounds very capably (the armada does) and a secure cover would be a plus but I imagine those would be available for any pickup. Seating for 5 ideal even if not super comfy.
Understeer: You will hit the wall with the front end.
Oversteer: You will hit the wall with the rear end.
Horsepower: How hard you will hit the wall.
Torque: How far you will move the wall.
Gone hunting with Alec Baldwin and Dick Cheney. Back soon.

It's worth 50 bucks until you see the battery tray.

Holy shit, I didn't imagine that was enough of a "thing" to pop up again.

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com
I've been contemplating a truck as well. Three coworkers had/have new Rams. Two 2500's and one 3500 dually. Fiat did a nice job with the interior. Two of them came from Ford trucks and swore they'd never go back. I also noticed the 2500 had a linked rear suspension which was a really nice touch. Maybe Chrystler products don't suck as much as they used to?

Kalash, my brotha... go over to the MB forum and find out what that guy ended up doing to his motor. I still can't believe that story!

2006-2007 Duramax diesel-powered crew cab, like a GM Sierra or a Chevy Silverado - they haul 2 tons or tow 5 tons. The 06-07 is alleged to be a good combination of reliability, less emissions equipment, and vehicle design.
