04 and newer trucks have a hook on the fuel door to hang the gas cap teather on.

I was driving my friend's dad's Screw, and I looked out the window to turn and I was looking right at the inside of the truck between the front and rear doors! I can't see at all (even in my periph) unless I lean forward.... Very annoying. were the old screws like that?

I agree with Big ole TRUCK mine has that same problem. Isn't that weird?

Except my gage moves fast from Full to Empty really fast!
Got to love those gas stations!

The stupid window being down on one side makes an air disturbance so you have to but othe windows down. I didn't mind taking the dog anywhere until now. LOL

I hate the way the stupid thing shifts. I wish it had a throttle cable. Drive by wire is something for me 15 years down the road to run a redlight and hit someone because it didn't notice I took my foot off the gas.

Yup and it is awesome. My old Expedition did not have it and I hated it. My old car had a little deal on the lid that that cap slid in to, however it had no teather.

I like the new set up much better (that is on my 07).

The more I look around, the more cheated I feel with the paint on my '07. It's like anyplace the naked eye won't see from 10' away, they didn't bother painting. Hood jambs/inner fenders, wheel wells, back corners of the hood as seen from inside the truck, etc. Maybe my '02 was just as bad, but it was silver so the gray primer probably just wasn't as visible through the thin spots. It makes me wonder if I'll have surface rust in those areas in 7 years.

Most annoying? Changing spark plugs, bad location of oil filter,flimsy gas cap teather! Also the parking brake "on" dash light is hard to notice before ruining your brakes!

Talking

I like the auto-lock feature.... while the carjacker is futzing with the handle I'll blow the dumb SOB away.
As far as rear visibility,...... put some 2" fisheye mirrors on your outside mirrors.

Don't you guys have a remote entry POB with your keyless entry system?
Once to unlock the drivers door and twice to unlock all of the other doors.

I'll add one the the Auto-Lock, the Auto Lamp, can't use the feature if you want to use the fog lights. Sheer stupidity! Thinking about it, the headlight switch is dumb. You can't use just the fog lights you have to have the headlight on first.
