An interesting snippet from the Truck magazine article posted above:Was that a valid criticism?
The electrical cover, the dash and grille did last actually quite long, I presume, because they were made of plastic in stead of metal, it might have given the first impression of being flimsy.
So, with hindsight (allways easier 
), I do not think it was valid.
