Yeah, but they could have changed the way the fuel is picked up. There is a $1000 fix mentioned around here that changes the pump & pick up while utilizing the same tank. Like I mentioned, sometimes manufactures will discover something & change it later down the production line without making any noise about it. Oil cooler, steering lock both come to mind . Other manufactures do this as well without issuing a recall.

That could be true. Also, less 12's and 13's sold, so that could be a reason for lower numbers as well.
