All manufactures have recalls? Really? I had no idea!! Thank you for pointing that out. I guess I will now sell all my vehicles and buy a horse and buggy.

Your earlier post indicated you didn't.

I owned a Ford Pinto with the shield installed, It was a cheap first car and was a lot better than the Chevy Astra that had exploding engines or the AMC Pacer which were cheap cars at that time as well.

The only Vehicles i owned that were crap

Olds Fiernza 1986
GMC Safari Van 1996

Every Ford has been great! Live Long and Prosper Ford!!

Not sure how often a dually is taken off road, enough to lift a tire..

I wonder if the Chevy 6,000 or 7,000 pounds in the bed what it would do to the frame at those angles.
