I Got My Truck Back!!!
Holy buckets do I feel naked when I have no ability to drive! What if the bugout sirens went off and I had no wheels?

My brakes were grinding bad...just started 4 or 5 days ago...but this had to be fixed NOW!

I brought it in this morning & got new brakes & an oil change...Now she runs like brand new dance

ME SO HAPPY!!!

Even the engine is running smoother because they used castrol GTX...the steering is tighter...it literally feels like it's brand new!

What a great feeling!

Alternators suck because it could be the alternator or the regulator, or the battery or the wiring (short in something anywhere in the vehicle).

Nice! I bought my truck 400 dollars, runs like a champ too. Put about 500 into it year I think, no payments, cheap insurance. Love it.

Happy for you hf

Re: I Got My Truck Back!!!
Why were your brakes grinding? You ought to take it in before that happens. There's also spark plugs, belts, tires. Better check them out weekly or you'll end up with no car again. And again. Garages open on weekends now too.

I kept bringing it to the dealership who kept telling me I didn't need brakes quite yet.

Today I took it to a place that is expensive but they do top quality work & use the best parts.

Glad I did!

The dealership used to be top quality but they aren't any more.

Re: I Got My Truck Back!!!
good to hear she's back with you op.

what did you pay for the oil change? wouldn't it be much cheaper to just do that part yourself?

Oh shit, you could have chased that forever. It's like doing electrical work & not realizing the light bulb burned out. It's got nothing to do with the wiring :)

I didn't check the individual charges...but 8 quarts of GTX is kinda pricey.

I'm sick of working on cars...I ain't that good at it & I have to scrub myself forever when I'm done.

Even jumped on the highway to test the acceleration...went as fast as I could without screeching the tires and she purred like a kitten banana2

I don't know WTF the dealership was using but it sure wasn't top quality oil!
