Angry Rattles!

I hate rattles and squeaks in a car or truck! Drives me insane! You try to fix a rattle urself and 10 more pop up in its place! You take it to the dealers, and they say they don't hear a darn thing! I hate hearing rattles all the time! I wish I was deaf sometimes where I couldn't hear rattles and squeaks as I drive! Did I mention that I hate rattles and squeaks?

Sounds like it might be time to upgrade your stereo system...

Only rattle that I have is a nut that I threw in one of the cup holders and haven't taken it out yet and I drive it on gravel roads everyday. "Because I live on one, along with 1/2 the people I know."

In the last few months it did develop a tick or click at slow speeds in the right front that I can not find and it's starting to get some wind noise arouund teh drivers door. So I just turn the radio up... When that dosent work anymore then I will get a bigger amp and better speakers. Untill it starts leaking water then I'll fix it.

Given your history with vehicles, I think you should be happy that the thing runs and overlook the squeaks and rattles...

mountaineer02v8 is TritonXLT

His Mountaineer rattles because he drives into walls.

NEVERMIND. You all already knew that. My bad.
