Good monday morning thinkers!!- hope you fellers had a great weekend!- i changed the oil in the eco- changed the air filter- ive had this truck just about a year- the dealership claimed that the truck got a full service- boy that was a filthy filter for only being in for 5,000 miles…makes me want to check the cabin air filter now.
Gotta go, guys, ttyl!!

Mornin' Bear. Sounds a little fishy to have a filter that dirty after only 5K. I change all of mine at 10K, and often wonder why I don't go to 15K. Probably ought to, they always look pretty clean at 10K.

That had to be New York or New Jersey.
No turn signals. Totally ignorant driving. Just keep running into ****. Never knowing what they did wrong.

They probably argued and insulted with the people that came to help them.

It's a Utah YT channel, and I also saw it on a local news site this morning. We have bad drivers here too.

I always think about using my dash cam footage (to put on YT) to show just how great things are here, LOL.

That said, I've been in New York and New Jersey. So I can attest to your assessment.

Just found a B&M shifter in the local classifieds.... going to pick it up tomorrow. He lives 75 miles away, but both of us work in SLC, so we'll meet tomorrow.

So... this is weird. My new clear headlights on The Eight Nine leaked water on me. Steeda has been working on getting PDI to replace them for a couple of months now. On Friday I got confirmation that they had shipped. I just got into Fedex's shipment details, and I think they sent the whole set again.



In the email they sent to me, it says:

So - question. I mean.... they do leak, but I can fix it. My whole point was that a brand new set shouldn't leak the third time the car gets washed. So.... do I fix 'em and Frankie gets some new eyes? Or is that wrong of me?

If they don't want them back, Fix'em and put them in the car.
Sadly though, the new ones will probably leak too.. Fix the new one before install?

Yes, I will They put "breathable" tape on the TOP of the headlight. I'll be making it seal, while still making it look like it's supposed to be there. Not sure what to do yet.
