    New ILSAC GF-7 motor oil standard boosts engine protection, MPG

    Happy birthday Heather! You're not missing much in the comments. Same ole' crap about thin oils and "Fu** the EPA!" type stuff. The only thing directed at you were comments about you saying "oh-W" vs. "zero-W".....lol. Pretty desperate complaints. Enjoy camping. Just got back from a long...

    New ILSAC GF-7 motor oil standard boosts engine protection, MPG

    🤷‍♂️ Every time trucks get rated on their mpg, this will be the result.

    Silverado Seat Comfort

    Maybe some of that $888 million should go into seat development vice a new V8. Wouldn't that be nice?

    Ford recalls 1.1 million vehicles: rearview camera software glitch

    They don't consider recalls. At least not in the reliability section but they do in the vehicle's Overall Score. When they do reliability, the numbers come from owner surveys, not their testing. They don't own them long enough to judge reliability I would assume. I took CRs annual survey for...

    3.0 L diesel 1500 vs 6.6 L diesel 2500 Silverado

    Like others said, what else besides towing? Plus, how often do you tow/haul? I know plenty of farmers and local workers that love those little diesels in a 1500 and work them daily. Does everything they ask when towing. But if you haul heavy, you need to drive heavy. I tend to remember the old...

    GM issues stop delivery on L87

    That's funny, I just read that myself and came here to see if anyone else saw it. I love how they did the math and showed that over 200,00 miles, the extra fuel amounts to $4,400. And that's if the mpg drops. What an unbelievable waste of the court's time. Gonna be great for the law firm though.

    2022-2025 Toyota Tundra recall: 443k water intrusion

    Well, they generally get knocked on for being too conservative in their tech and design. Seems like the old saying of "Good initiative, poor judgement" works well here.

    2022-2025 Toyota Tundra recall: 443k water intrusion

    They never test enough of them. Sounds like the Ram recall with CHMSL leak. Wasn't a safety issue but sure sucked getting your headliner soaked and finding a puddle in your rear seat.

    EPA killing auto start stop?

    Automated with AI search engines looking for key words. My old company actually did this to identify poor reviews to get on top of issues. Edit: Let me add, the search part was automated. A human from CS still had to watch it.

    EPA killing auto start stop?

    That is funny that they don't already know what is said on every video out there. You'd think they'd have someone in a room, watching every bit of media on current issues or recent releases just to see what's being said. There is a video out there right now from DONSLIFE that is claiming to have...

    GM issues stop delivery on L87

    After sorting through the docs on the NHTSA site, it appears it changed right after May 8th which was the last mention of inspection and changing the oil. Instructions for inspection and oil viscosity change were included with recall# NV252494001 in April and then NV252494002 came out in May...

    Shots fired

    Knew a fellow Marine in Cali back in the 80's that had a nice green 69 Charger and had a tattoo of it across his chest. Well, being young and dumb, he wrapped it around a pole one night. And put a nice scar across the front end of his tattoo.

    The tariffs happened!

    Don't kid yourself, the majority of the work is not coming back. It's too far gone. You can say some companies have brought things back but then Ford has announced price increases for Mexico made vehicles. The only losers will be consumers. We are a free-market country so we will always have...

    GM issues stop delivery on L87

    Sounds like somebody overruled the accountants. Good for them. They need to build back that trust.

    Question about reservations

    Do you mean ordering it and waiting compared to buying off the lot?

    GM issues stop delivery on L87

    Apparently there is an update on the L87 recall that they are now sticking with the 0w-20 but replacing the engines if the recall applies.
