Hello all,
After much research on the site I must say how impressed I am by all the info I've gained for my new toy. I had to sell my sportbike to afford the L but I'd do the trade again anyday in a heartbeat. Let me begin by saying that I've had my 2000 L for almost a month. Put on about 1000 miles so far. It had 1200 miles when I bought it. Thats not a misprint either. The guy never drove it. You don't even want ot know what I bought it for. $23,500. Came with a cab on the back too but looked gay. Also cat-back flowmasters. My g-friend has become quite jealous of the truck because I think I love it more than her. I have sooo many questions I don't even know where to start. Before I start any mods I want to get my recalls done. I've heard of the wiper motor recall, the intercooler recall,seat recall, and my damn brakes are squeling already and I'm also getting the famous "CLUNK" noise too when I make hard turns. Will the dealership fix all this under my current warrenty? Also who has info on getting extended warranties as far as $$$ for the L's. Thanks.
Tim

Good idea about getting the recalls done first. Cause i've heard dealers wanting to void warrantys for K&N filters.
Welcome to the site by the way, i'm sure you will find lots of usefull info here.

I love slapshot.
Yeah I do have the faster Silver color btw. 
I hated having to take my old civic and gsxr to the shop for warranty work and take all my mods off before cause they'll pass the bill on whenever they can. I do need to a dealership with a good service dept. This truck is fast enough as it is but I think I'm gonna go with the superchip flip and PSP filter for now. Damn I'm catching the bug again.
