Took it in for its oil change. Also due for a cooling system flush. so just some routine maintenance. I will be heading to Virginia this weekend and wanted to get it done.

Yeah. for what it would cost me to do the stuff at home the dealer is only a few bucks more. might as well let them get dirty and let them worry about getting rid of the old oil and coolant. and yeah I have to be careful. I know what happened the last time. I had a free oil change. and ended up driving home in a new truck.

I let the diesel shop do my coolant, I just do the oil at home.

I could do my oil change at home but I also have to work on the street and watch for people speeding down it that could hit the truck while I am under it. not worth the risk when the dealer is only a few bucks more then what the supplies cost me.

Oh, yeah, not a good place to be doing that. Don't blame you a bit for taking it in, Shaun.

Yeah. not worth playing dodge the speeding traffic from under the truck. besides I make it a point to combine a few stops on the way home anyway so it isn't a lost trip on the way home. Next stop is to get an alignment check ( dang Baltimore city streets) and have the tires rotated and balanced.
