Bedslide
Does any one have any experience with the "Bedslide"? I've recently put a Leer fiberglass cap on my 8' bed to protect my tools, however, realized real quick that I will not be able to continue to climb in the bed of the truck each time I need something. I find the bedside very functional but...- dirtdobber

transmission shift delay
550 roofer Hey Guy; You're exactly right. I try to always check behind the dealership. I did have the technician check the fluid level and now I'm going to check it myself. Thanks- dirtdobber

Hello
My previous SD was a 2000 XLT with the 7.3 which I felt could no be beat. Hopefully the 2011 6.7 will prove me wrong. I purchased the super cab with 8' bed embellished with the Lariat trim package. Today I ordered a Leer camper shell to keep my bed dry. Got the Rhino liner sprayed in Monday.- dirtdobber

transmission shift delay
Has any one experienced the six speed auto trans hesitating when placed in reverse? I have only been driving my new 2011 for two weeks but have experienced the problem several times. It usually hesitates for 2-4 seconds and then shifts rough. The fluid level was checked by my dealer and found to...- dirtdobber
