Add this to the list of features we wish we had...

I had to pick up some large lumber from Home Depot the other day, and it was a bit too big for the X, so I rented their truck to get it home. They gave me the keys to this orange GM thing out in the lot. I started it up, and noticed an extra gauge in the bottom left corner of the cluster. To my surprise, this truck had a factory tranny temp gauge!! I know it can be added to my truck, but imagine if it came with stuff like this!

Otherwise, it was even more of a P.O.S than I expected. I know it's a rental, but at 36k, a truck shouldn't feel like it has no shocks, and otherwise drive like it's 40 years old with 200k. I've seen U-haul trucks better than this.

gotta also think this is a rental that is abused at the contractor level/grade..... home depot should be more up to date on mainteneace, but isnt due to the fleeting of their vehicles.... u-huals sole business is the fleet

Yeah, I know. I used to work at that store BTW. The truck also had new tires on it, so you know it sees some hard use. :roll:

Newer F350's have built in tranny temp gauges.
