Consumer Description
HE DASH STARTED CRACKING NOT THAT LONG AFTER WE GOT THE TRUCK. IT WAS NOT EVEN PAID OFF WHEN IT STARTED COMING APART WAS USED. WE EVENTUALLY PUT A MAT DASH COVER ON IT TO KEEP THE PARTS FROM FLYING AROUND. IT HAS VIRTUALLY DISSOLVED SINCE THEN. VERY POOR MATERIAL WAS USED ON THESE. *TR
