  So it all started when the truck was vibrating that I've got almost a few months ago from a dealership I paid a pretty penny for the truck so I was pretty upset that the thing was vibrating and I hardly had it long..I took it to to transmission shops they both said that it would need a new transmission so it would cost me anywhere from $ 2,800 to $3,200 to replace so the clutch was bad too after being frustrated and by my inner Instinct saying no way this can't be it I need another opinion can't remember who I talk to but they told me to go to first gear that Mark was a good guy and he would be able to find the problem I called Mark he told me to bring it in he wanted to check it out and test drive it before he went ahead and decided to fix the transmission the other guys did not do that that, they didn't even put it on a lift they didn't even drive it they just heard it and said it needed a new tranny I'm not going to say what shops are those are but they are used a lot. But on with my experience with Mark after he gave me the call to tell me what was wrong was the U joint on the rear which could have been easily found that they looked underneath the truck I was relieved to find out that I didn't have to spend money on a clutch or tranny it only cost me a little over two hundred bucks for labor and part and I was tickled but Mark had the truck on the left when I got there and said you need to take a look under here he pointed to my exhaust system to the first catalytic converter and then the second catalytic converter and said somebody cut into the second cat but the first cat doesn't belong to this truck it looks like it belongs to 1.8 Toyota you have a 2.7 that pipe is too small your truck would be running hot and your motor would be destroyed if it continued going like that ,somebody swapped out this whole system so you need to go and take it to the dealer and see if he can remedy the situation I battled really hard with the dealer in the shop that he took it to... neither of them would claim responsibility for their part in screwing me over and getting me stuck with the truck that could not smog after fighting with them and slapping the Lemon Law on them I finally got them to both cough up the money and get the exhaust system fix that was over $2,600 I wasn't going to spend $2,600 exhaust system I didn't ruin and I wasn't going to spend $2,900 either for a transmission that didn't need to be replaced or a clutch so thank you Mark for helping me out I've been a repeat customer ever since and I'm very happy although he might give you a very tough stair he can be a nice man if you're a smart person and don't blabber to much.
