Switched to 0W-30 at 1,000 miles and doing oil changes every 4,000 miles. Steve

Adjusting the position of the rear bumper may be easier than trying to tweak the tailgate, because the tailgate pivot point is kinda loose by design. Steve

I just use the slowest nozzle setting and stop at the first automatic shutoff. It fills up just fine. No need to "Wait 5 seconds" for air purge. Steve

Rear tires are not driven tires, so odd wear pattern indicates alignment issues. Take it to a reputable alignment shop and have them check all mechanicals, nuts and bolts. If it has been curbed or you found a deep pothole, well, now it's bent under there and some rear suspension components may...

Yeah. I noticed that, too. Maybe it was the OTHER right fender. Steve

8-lug wheels on those things! Steve
