The fact that mine drove me so nuts I was going to jump ship and part it out, but instead I bought another one to build that's much nicer but is driving me equally as nuts..... I never learn.

Re: What do you hate about your SY/TY

it breaks 100 $2 parts instead of 1 $200 part.

For the most part, there isn't anything that bothers me too bad about it. However, this is pretty much it for me. All the little parts that break on the damn thing. It also takes an extreme amount of work to repair these $2 parts which keeps the truck down for awhile. Very annoying!

The fact that it's up on jackstands for the first time since I've had it. :rant:

Sometimes stuff is kind of a pain to fix on them. But most of the time I enjoy working on them.

I really wish that I was able to own several more SyTys.

With more time behind the wheel I am finding I wish it had a manual transmission. WHY was this not an option in these things?!?!?!?!

Not that I want to do a conversion as I am keeping it as stock as I can.

Why do I think that this thread is going to become longer than "What did you do to your SyTy today?" :D

I hate that there is always something that I can do to make it better.

Re: What do you hate about your SY/TY

Can't stand how quick the cladding gets oxidized and how often it requires attention... also can't stand how there is no aftermarket light weight exterior parts ie carbon fiber tailgates, fenders etc

Also hate that these trucks exhaust note sound like boats...

Re: What do you hate about your SY/TY

My Ty squeaked. rattled, and sounded like it was falling apart (which it sort of was). The wiring spaghetti factory under the hood. The dent-prone factory wheels. The fact that when one thing broke 3 others broke later that week. Otherwise they were a blast.

Such a small cab, I can't recline my seats.

Also, like the 10 lbs in 5lb sack, no room under the hood. I had a '69 GTO, and I could sit on the fender well to change plugs.

Glad this came back up. My tailgate is rusted out and with just a drizzle or light rain I cannot believe how much shit ends up on the back window and tailgate. The rear wiper nearly needs constant running to get a view. Maybe its the rear luggage rack fin-thing. Good learning bit though...when it gets repaired its going to be done to accommodate for this.

That is what the wing is for - it redirects air over the back and stops all the crap building up. I am torn - looking :gay: or being blind in the rear.

Some might say they are the same thing...

:D

I hate that it is 20 years old and every problem has been resolved in another car but by so much that I can't incorporate it into my 20-year-old-piece-of-farm-machinery Typhoon without a total overhaul.

X2. Had mine with the wing for a while and it definitely helped the rear glass in rain situation but I couldn't stomach it. So now I just don't drive it in the rain :lol:

Re: What do you hate about your SY/TY

I hate that our trucks look so much better lowered but when you lower them they ride like an empty dump truck


I hate that when you put wider wheels and tires they drive like a snake down the road


I hate that no matter what you do to tighten screws and clips they rattle like they're falling apart :rant:
