My complaint, and it is the only one is the proximity of the brake pedal to the gas pedal. If I wear a wider shoe, it is very tight with almost no room to move your foot from gas to brake.
It seems that it would be an easy fix if the brake pedal connector arm was shortened and bent towards the left approximately one inch.

Your right... there are a ton of(minor) complaints about

1. brake pedal closeness
2. window control location
3. rear visibility (or lack of)
4. horsepower
5. dirt splash/buildup on front & rear fenders
6. price
and on and on and on...

BUT

you notice MOST of us still love em and are keeping em

Remember if they were PERFECT everybody would want one

AND

Then we would have nothing to complain about!!!

Cross over window control here as well. You'll come to trust those mirrors. Get a retune from PCMforless, rev it up in the gears; for the automatic that means select the gears.

I had stopped by the dealer last week, to compare if you will, the difference between the '06, and the '07. You know, Except for the motor and other obvious known changes, the trucks are identical.

This makes me very happy, because for a first year model to make very minor adjustments says to me and I'm sure to all of you as well, that they did it right!

These trucks will be keepers for years to come.
Kind of like the older Corvettes. Very subtle differences, but all collectible just the same. It is what makes the vehicles unique to their respective year of manufacture.

The leveling kit will not help visibility.
Try the power seats they help a lot. You will get use to it in time.
