They did replace the whole mirror assembly. Now if they could do something about the beer drinking. Wait I have the solution, my dealership can buy me beer for spending all that money on my truck

Vibration
I've got 8k on mine and its time to take it back to have the tires reindexed and balanced again. It was fine after the last time, when they rotated them now the steering wheel vibration is back 66-75 mph. I'm thinking about getting rid of the crapy BFG tires.

First let me say this is my first American truck in many years after being burned badly by a Ram back in 1996 (went 100% Toyota after that POS).
Always had good luck with the Toyota's but needed a heavier truck.
Have an '06 with 9500 miles and all I can say is WOW!. I have had fewer issues in my first 9 months of ownership than I have had with ANY Toyota I have ever owned.
With that being said....it is almost time to trade the '03 Sequoia with 50k miles on it (broken door handles, broken antennas, new ball joints, brakes a plenty) and I am seriously contemplating an Expedition.
God forbid....two American cars at one time!!!!!

4300 miles on my 06 Screw FFV 5.4. Vibration problem from the start already into the dealership twice for that. Now tonight I went to go for a ride and it won't start. Turn the key and get a clicking, lights work but won't turn over. I also have vibration at 72 MPH, 4wd clunks when I engage it and wheels won't turn smoothly in 4wd, power loss when juming on the highway, and the ste tubes are starting to rattle. Going to call the dealership in the morning to tow it out of my driveway then I'm starting to work on preparing a lemon case. I love the truck, had a 2005 with no issued and traded up to the Screw, looks like I really got Screwed.
