The passenger door actuator in my brother's 08 silverado went out on his truck about 2 weeks ago. Believe he had about 10k miles on it. I havent had any problems with my GMC yet, but shes only 2 months old.
Yeah I first got up here in Jan or 04 and there was about 2 ft of snow on the ground and it was 5º outside. The wind actually took more getting used to than the snow/cold weather, 40mph gusts 3 or 4 times a week gets to be a bit much at time. I only have about 40 days left up here then I am on my way back South for good.
