Seems like everyone I know with a GXP, either hates it, does not keep it long, or wants to sell it lol. I think they are nice cars and wouldnt mind one for a DD.

You now know someone that does not fit into that category. I am hoping to keep it for 10 years+. Mine runs good, but I don't beat on it nor drive that many miles so I think that helps. Does eat a bit of oil though. :picard:

:werd: Get a trans cooler on it STAT!!!! Still no guarantee it won't go since mine went out a year after I put my trans cooler on and I don't beat on my truck. And check the rear doors right before the wheels for rock chips eating away at your paint, there's a TSB for it and if it's bad they repaint and put a 3M appliqué on.

If you want to mod it and not ruin your warranty
1. Trans cooler installed by dealership or just pray it blows under warranty.
2. Cut off the resonator and garbage can sized muffler and put a magnaflow on it.
3. Get rid of the shitty RSA's as soon as you can. I had Yokohama Paradas on and I loved them (the new 22's have General Grabbers)
Any engine mods like CAI, efans etc require a tune which negates your warranty.

Not to piss on this forum but get on TBSSowners.com if you're not already and come out to the meets. Hell of a nice upgrade BTW.

the only mods im going to do are as followed
trans cooler
lowering springs
window tinting is a must
remove the emblems and have my pinstriper do his magic
i know about the bullietin on the paint and plan on the 3m film
cat back is a must
a CAI
tint the tail lights
paint the calipers
the tires will stay until worn down truck only has 30k on it and spring time is coming
might do something to the engine cover
change oil with royal purple or ams oil
