None (and I'm well beyond the honeymoon stage). The gas mileage is far worse (but that is to be expected). I'm getting about 15.5 mpg mixed (~85/15 highway/city). It's substantially better in the snow and on unpaved roads, and I get far more utility out of it (shopping trips are much easier now). I'm not sure what trim level you are considering, but the Pro-4x is awesome. I now greatly appreciate sitting above most other vehicles on the road. The only downside is not having dual-zone climate control (and that's if I'm really being picky). If you're really interested, PM me and I can give you some advice on how I got a great deal on mine. For reference, a Pro-4x without the premium package (leather seats, etc) should be had under $30k. An almost fully-loaded SL (without navigation) should be in the $34k-range. Both those prices are considering current incentives.
My last not-really-a-complaint is that I want another manual transmission car. Can't really call it a complaint against the truck, just that I'd like to have that ability back.
