Yeah Im not sure what it is but its only when its really cold but it starts and runs great. I have no complaints at all for as old of a truck as it is. All Ive had to do is replace the battery and normal wear and tear like breaks and such. Plus one radius arm, which I replaced when I did the lift. She still has under 140 k on her.

I'm probably not going to worry about it unless it gets really bad. The wife wants to keep it til my oldest step son turns 16, then give it to him. Have to see how she holds up over the next 2 1/2 years.

I found the spot on mine, on the drivers side bed, in front of the wheel well at the bottom. The paint is lifting in about a fist size spot.

that's why I was trying not to drive the '06 too much when the weather got like it is now, to limit it's exposure to all the damn salt, but I've been driving it alot more lately. It is actually grey now, not Black!
