sadly I knew it and still did it.

What really burns me up is your and mine are in no way rusted up pieces of sht. Then I would get it. Yours looks very clean. I had all brand new suspension and hardware and they still gave me the to and go treatment.


DAMN I WISH I HAD A SHOP. An honest one to run. These places are making a killing on the mechanically ignorant and it’s spilling over to the few that are left that aren’t.

well I got taken for 128$ alignment today. get told I have an appointment at 10am, get there and 3 cars ahead so going to be a few hours. gave up waiting and get a ride home. pick it up end of day. asked the service writer and before I left walked back and asked the tech if I could get a before and after print out. of course I didn't get it.


got home and took a look, never even put a wrench on a bolt. blah. don't know if they just inputted the data and printed the last vehicle up there, or if it's possible it's good. I don't believe so thou. it's had a little pull since I got it. didn't feel it on the new tires, but also didn't take it on the interstate before the alignment either. all in all it goes straight but I don't trust it as far as wear goes.

I have a lifetime alignment on both of mine from Firestone and when I replaced my steering rack at home last year, they put it on the rack and dialed it back in for free. Night and day difference in steering and tracking, before and after. It’s possible yours was legit okay.

Nothing. But I did get to see and drive my buddy's new-to-him 10K mile '22 Yukon XL Denali with the 3.0 Duramax. It's absolutely beautiful, inside and out. He has 2 kids and borrowed our '07 a couple of months ago when he and his family were in Richmond and their Jeep broke down. His wife loved the room and he knows how much we love ours, so he decided to invest.

The 3.0 feels good and accelerates well with a relaxed, isolated vibe. It reminded me of the 2.0 diesel in my old '14 328d. Competent and easy, with good low-end grunt. It's no cammed 6.2L V8, however. But, it's cheaper to run!
