we stay a week behind most of the time as well as the the other area dealers. we had a guy pull his truck out of a shop because he was #27 on the wiat list and bring it to us just to be #15 on ours
Well that's good to hear and good for you guys. I was living in an area where not many people purchase diesels and so the dealership/service mgr. there was eager to find any work for his diesel mechanics which favored me. I shouldn't have made a vague generalization about all shops being slow, I just happened to live near one that was.

Of course, I don't like hearing that 27 trucks are lined up at one shop and 15 at another, it really doesn't speak well for our trucks. I love mine, but that's a whole other discussion.
