You guys have got me so paranoid (in a good way) I've been looking under the truck almost daily for tranny oil leaks, coolant leaks etc, etc,. Today I came across the drivers side moulding (just under the drivers door) missing all 6 bolts to hold it up. It's held up in place by snap fittings and the bolts are meant to PERMANTLY attach it to the body skirt. A few SS bolts and it was better than new.

I do love this truck! Now it's back under to look some more.... helter skelter, helter skelter Hehehehe.

Hey Franko- It's good that you're on your guard now, at the expense of us less fortunate 00 owners .

But seriously, it's probably best that you stay vigilant, just in case. I'm really hoping that this will be my only real problem with my L, as I'm getting rather anxious to have my truck back. And like I said in a previous post "I really didn't think I would be paying ~$30K for the 'privilege' of driving an underpowered Ford Focus rental car."

Bummed, rather irritated, and starting to get pissed off in Oregon... ~rick
