Hey all, I've been lurking a while and figured I'd finally share.
28 years old, married 7 years, father of 4 (just had twins in December) minimal vehicle maintenance or repair experience.

2011 SSV used by border patrol up on WA purchased back in April.
A few of my experiences so far
Horn didn't work, after reading forums I assumed it was the wiring and just needed to reconnect. Turns out the horns we're just broken. Got them replaced.
Brakes were completely shot. Got those replaced.
Wheel bearings and hub assembly needs replaced in the front still.
Small electrical or other issues I still have: cruise control, front washer fluid doesn't come out, a/c, inside floor gets super hot, center rear controls don't seem to work, the rear seats also appear to be heated? Or at least there are buttons for it.
Love this truck so far, just needs some TLC
Thanks!
