The front corner posts are extreamly wide, to the point blocking vision. Although I have trained myself to move my body to be able to see around them I have come close to an accident a couple of times. I believe this is a design problem or design flaw. If someone driving one of these trucks says "but I didn't see the other car". it may very well be true. I have no other problems with this wonderfull truck.

The windshield bonding/sealant would leak & run down the side edges of the vehicle to the fender. This happens when the weather is hot.
