I think this thread brings up a great point, that sometimes just nosing around your truck or car can really pay off. Whenever I do an oil change, I always look at some stuff while I'm under there waiting for the oil to drain. U-joints, sway bar links, exhaust studs, wiring condition, brake rotors, etc. It's one of the benefits of being too broke to take a vehicle to a dealership for service, you can actually find stuff to save money! Plus by hiding under there for 20 minutes my wife can't find me to clean the gutters...
