    Nice that the seller is offering a discount for selecting the stock wheels because those aftermarket wheels are terrible on that thing.

    It has two things I HATE in a car: Manual windows and automatic climate control.

    MikeT, after dealing with the electronic controls in my wife's Suburban, I have to agree, I'd rather chase the vacuum leaks in the basic systems. Our truck doesn't even have auto climate control but every basic function has been replaced by a weak little plastic servo of some sort. I'd be so much happier with cable operated temperature and air direction controls. As it is now, I have to select what direction I want, then reach up under the dash and move the servo manually until the airflow matches what I wanted. For summer use, it's dash only for cold AC. For winter use it's half defrost half floor for nice hot heat. In spring and fall I'll probably be moving it daily.
