My question is, why when I am towing a 4000# TT behind my 07 STrac V8, does the tranny hunt back and forth in top gear and what can I do about it. It cuts my gas mileage to 10MPG at 65 +? I tried running in 3rd and with OD off, but that drops the mileage even more. If I could lock out the...

Go to www.extang.com , they make the best snap on soft vinyl covers available. They also make a product called MAXSEAL tailgate seal that works great. Best of all its just $29.95 for the Trac, plus shipping, and installs in minutes. Basically its a peal and stick heavy duty foam seal a lot like...

I am looking to purchase a pair of custom fit sheepskin seatcovers for my new 07 Trac (Limited) with cloth seats. I have looked at both Rocky Mountain Sheepskin.com and Sheepskin.com. Both have a similar product at similar prices, any recomendations on these two or other suppliers? Your...

Does anyone have experience with the Westin model #100020 bed extender for a 2007 ST compared to OEM extender, it is 33% less costly? Or is there an OEM extender, complete, I can buy for $220? Bob

Todd, no, just a light pumping , up and down and under heavy breaking, can be felt in the steering wheel. I was thinking brake contamination or irregular new rotor and pad surfaces or am I nieve? Bob

Question for Todd and all. I just purchased a new 2007 ST Limited :wub: and now have about 400 miles on it. During moderate braking from speeds above 40 I feel some pumping of the brakes, its a 100% repeatable sensation. Light braking seems normal and heavy braking its more pronounced. Do you...

I recently purchased a new 2007 ST LTD with class III/IV package and V8. What weight distribution and sway equipment do you veterans recomend to tow a 19', 4000 lb TT with 450lb hitch weight loaded. Is independent rear suspension a negative factor in sway control? Bob
