And try the sunroof anyway. I always wanted a truck with one and even with my last truck which was loaded (in my sig), it still didn't have one. Nothing else like driving around in a...

The idea that this will force other manufacturers to get better is wishful thinking. This is like saying that BMW builds a better vehicle than Chevy and that will make them step up their game. Naw,...

I think the Weightsafe is very cool but I don't think I'd base my trailer choice on the ability to use one. Unless you repack for every trip or have heavy things inside for some trips and not others,...
