  1. I think it looks good AUTOGUY. I too have a Joe Gibbs spoiler on mine and have had lots of compliments on it. The only difference I see is that the bolt fastners on mine are not painted I think I must have got one of the last ones before they stopped production because about 2 weeks after getting it I checked the website and it was stating that production of the Joe Gibbs equipment had ended. Glad to see they are being reproduced and again, looks good!

  2. I had to have the entire rack and pinion steering replaced (under warranty thankfully) yesterday. I started noticing a squeaking sound when the steering wheel was turned past the first full turn to the left. My truck now drives night and day differently now. I wondering if the steering unit was bad to begin with. With 17,700 miles on my truck, I wouldn't expect this to happen. It sure seems like GM did not design a very good steering system with all the problems that have come up with these trucks.

  3. GM just announced the closing of 4 full size truck factories including the Oshawa plant where our SSs were produced. This may be a deathblow to any future SS truck like we have seen with the new 427 blue prototype. Looks like gas prices are finally going to start really making a difference in what car companies produce. An end of an era may be on the horizon and the chance of a new full-size SS truck could be fading fast. Let's hope not!!

  4. Thanks guys, I never thought about that, but it makes sense because now that I think back, there was just a little tire chirp and then it did the bogging down thing. My truck is 2 wheel drive.

  5. Today, just after filling up with the $3.47 93 octane gas, as i left the pumps a car comes out of nowhere and I punched the gas to get out of the way and my truck bogged like a carb. would sometimes do 30 years ago. It has never done this before, any ideas what is going on?

  6. I know this question has come up before, but does the Goodmark Cowl Induction hood hit the windshield wipers or not when the hood is raised. I thought I saw somewhere here on the forum that Goodhood had remeded this; Have they or not? I trying to decide between the Goodmark and Reflexion for my 05.
