The Titan with the Cummins has a horrible reputation. No one works on the Cummins and its reliability is sketchy coupled to a trans that has zero parts availability

The Rams always seem to be the first to go around here but none of them will tolerate neglect. Treating the rockers, bed wheel arches and the boxed frame areas is essential but most folks dont do it.

Goodyear says 6 yrs and I know from first hand experience that their company stores keep very close track of dates on tires and can only sell units less than a certain date old (I believe 6 months)

E-mail them with the info. They are very helpful

Apparently the lack of work or physical activity makes it possible

Pull the oval plugs on the inside of the bed to gain access to the wheel arches and soak them with Fluid film or similar. Same with the rocker panels, pull the plugs out and let er rip. I also do the frame everywhere its boxed, inside and out.

They are submerged in a bath and the primer is electrically bonded to the body. I can find out the name of what GM uses if you guys want.

Everything is negotiable. If you think automotive fees are bad ask anyone who has bought an RV.

I used to be a loyal NAPA customer but their company store vs independent store pricing wears me out. Aint nobody got time for that.

Yes, GMO was 18% and part of the reason I usually ordered my vehicles. I miss those days for sure. A lot depends on the model and whats being built. I know some plants like to "batch build" certain models and colors to increase efficiency. Its an ever changing landscape.

I order almost all the time and always make it clear that there are to be no add ons. Document fees are a real thing everywhere here since the state forced the dealers to...

I have heard that some engines are built with an oil formulated for the possibility of long storage periods while on the lot. This was from people in the OEM space but of course its anecdotal and you could never prove it one way or another. I do know that GM has several engine cells in the...

Since its an ongoing issue I would politely ask for an appointment at Costco and insist on a manager being involved. You should not have to wait since youve already been there. You should be going to the front of the line. If the shop or store manager is any good you should get squared away quickly.

Considering the minute amount of the fuel used in those applications I dont think that the marketing is directed to them. You could draw your own conclusions but the economics of testing something for such a small segment isnt money well spent.

I love me some Costco gas.

I still have a really good set from years ago when I worked at an industrial supplier. I had them all sharpened when I was working part time a few years ago for a friend with a machine shop. Now that my kids dont have access to them I should be good for a long time.

So what youre saying is you need a better drill assortment ? I would have loaned you one were it not for the 2600 mile commute.
