Consumer Description

I OWN A 2002 CHEVY SILVERADO 2500HP. WHILE GETTING ONTO THE TAILGATE ABOUT A MONTH AGO BOTH CABLES SNAPPED CLEAN AND I WENT TO THE GROUND UNHARMED. LUCKILY I FELL AWAY FROM THE TRUCK AND THE TAILGATE WAS NOT DENTED. HAVE WARNED ALL MY FRIENDS TO CHECK THEIR TRUCKS AS WELL. BOUGHT NEW CABLES AND INSTALLED FOR ABOUT $25. *LA
