The truck is very minimal. One visor. One mirror,on the drivers side. One arm rest. The truck is really cool. I've been watching the mileage. Getting some different readings but the latest is about 13.24 miles per gallon. Driving about 65 mph. It's doing better than what I've been reading about these trucks. I am wondering if some people who give info on the v6 engines have ever had one. It might just be I haven't had the truck long enough to really know anything. But it seems like a great all around truck. I don't understand the negative comments from my experience with old gmc trucks. I hope this engine keeps running strong. I want to take it to some car shows.

Yeah, I don't get the negative comments on the V6 either. I agree...alot of people who seem to post bad comments about them probably never even had one. Its the same way in the 6 cylinder world. People say its a waist of time yet they have never even done it themselves. My 305E will outpull a 350 without problem loaded down with equal loads. I was pulling a hill in 4th gear at 55 mph at 1/2 throttle. Never even had to downshift. That's pretty good for a So called "Boat anchor."
