Default Cut out cup holders

I was thinking of doing this since I cannot find a coffee mug that fits. The only problem is that yo cannot go any wider. I wish I could find a aftermarket upgrade thats adjustable.

I know when i'm driving down the road the deer always seem to stop and stare. I guess they like Dodge as much as I do. I'm happy their not running in front of me or into me.

I hate the gas mileage. Not THAT bad for a truck, but I still wish it were better. :/

I hate how:
it doesn't want to shift into 2nd gear when below 30 degrees
I have one fender made out of 3/4 gallon bondo
the rust
all the money I had to put into it
And how my neighbors yell at me for cluttering up my yard and make a lot of noise while working on my truck, because I'm sure as hell not going to pay some jabroni 100$/hour to do something I can do just as easily

Other than that, it's a damn perfect truck

For me its simply size... which may also be the reason for it getting dumped for something else. I cannot fit enough car seats into it to fit our needs. haha. Looking at 80's suburbans.

After last weekend, ground clearance sucks on it too. I tore up the bottom pretty good and just missed the t case with a rock by inches! New 31's the next day and I was planning keys and leafs for another 2" but we shall see how the key thread goes!

Other than that, I like it.

The only thing I hate about my 90 ext cab sport is this is the second damn deer that ran into my truck at nights

the turning radius of the Nimitz, and the glove box, such as it is.

As little as I paid for my truck there's still plenty to hate about it!
  • The POS AX-15 that's popping out of second and grinds into reverse even after an oil change.
  • The 3.21 peg leg rear axle, though I do like getting 16MPG around town!
  • Six lug wheels, I was used to looking for wheels for my dad's S10 with a million options from Camaro to Grand National wheels.
  • The cat. converter rattling louder than my Flowmaster
  • Lack of aftermarket support and not many clean ones around for parts
  • Rust, the rocker panel's I can order, the back wheel well I need to find local
  • It's not a V8.
