Anyone have any luck finding a dealer to perform the TSB in the Long Island or NY metropolitan area? It seems like there is a severe shortage of transmission techs in my area . . .

Has anyone bought a manual from Chapman that is experiencing the much-discussed grinding scraping issue? If so, did you bring the car back to Hassett for the TSB? I am having a terrible time finding a local dealer to handle this, and I am wondering if Chapman has any experience with the manual...

Thank you for the suggestion, will give them a call!

Thanks Joe. I saw that Hassett gets good reviews, and actually dropped my car off there on Wednesday. Today, I get a call back. They acknowledge the grinding sound, but tell me there is nothing they can do unless I am willing to leave my car there for months, until their transmission guy can...

Can anyone recommend a Long Island dealership for transmission work? I am experiencing the dreaded manual grinding/scraping noise, which is apparently covered by a TSB. My regular dealer is Hempstead but they are so backed up its impossible to even get an appointment. If anyone else has...

I have been feeling the same way this week - I assumed that the vanishing EDD could not bode well for any of us. But then I logged in this morning and low and behold, I have moved to "Built" for the first time. I'm not counting on anything till it actually shows up at my dealer, but hopefully...

I was also cognizant of the weight, as someone who was dead set on the 2.3 / 7 speed. I don't need skid plates etc. for the driving I'm likely to do, and I didn't want to add an extra 400-500 lbs to an already heavy vehicle with a 4 cyl.

That's a good looking truck - lucky to have gotten AMB while it existed. How has it been in the snow? I have a BB on the way (fingers crossed) and the only thing I sometimes second guess is the lack of 4A.

Just curious how this went. Any tips for people looking to do the same? Thanks!

Those are some awesome pics - looks like a great day! Nice looking bd. What are your thoughts on the 2.3 / manual combination generally? Are you happy with it in day to day driving?

Are you referring to the Lund "rocker panels" listed on build and price (see below)? Did you order them and have a bad experience?

I would love to be wrong, but I suspect that these are just bimini tops. Looks like a combined package including both a mesh and canvas bimini top? Otherwise, why would they sell it together with the existing soft top?

Has anyone seen the trail armor rocker panels in person? On the build and price, they look like they don't even run the entire length of the vehicle. I am wondering if this is accurate, or just a glitch with B&P?

This is really interesting. Did you by any chance try any other color codes from the touch-up paint website? I think the two new ones that have been previously discussed are: Peak Blue Metallic, Color Code: KY/M7469 and Yellowstone, Color Code: S6/M7461

Congrats - great looking vehicle! How does the 2.3 feel in the black diamond? Manual or Auto?

I really like the sandstone interior, but I was worried that the lighter dash might cause a reflective glare on windshield. Can you speak to that at all?

Nice find. I tried to look at the timer at the bottom of the video to guesstimate - looks to be in 7 to 8 second range to 60 mph? Note that the speedo in KPH, not miles - must be one of our Canadian brethren!

Looks pretty close to this - which would be alright by me . . .

This was my experience too. I never paid an additional $100 to Horsham. And to my knowledge I never got $100 back from my original dealer. Just assumed it carried over . . .

Any thoughts on how this set up might lend itself to aftermarket heated seats? (for those of us who don't have access to the mid package?). Would it be possible to wire them to the aux system?
