    Finally got the WS90 Blizzaks mounted and installed on the front of the 2000 Civic that was free. It was a give away from my neighbor. Definitely better in the snow. Its actually a fun car. Just wish it was a manual.
    Just picked up a set of Blizzaks today for my Audi. I've had Nokians and X-ice Michelins and loved them, but I'm excited to test these out later this week if the forecast holds.

    I'm not a car guy, but I love this truck. It's been a good one too.
    So far I've replaced a wheel bearing and rewired part of the fusebox. That's been the only issues.
    It's a 2012 and everything still works on it, no rust and drives very well.
    It does only get 13 mpg though.

    I drive a 2002 F250 every day. It’s old, heavy, loud, and rusty. Purchased in September 2014 with 220k miles. Diesel engine and manual transmission. 344k miles now. 75% daily driver, but when I need a truck, I NEED a truck.

    At this point I know every nut and bolt. It holds its own against the new trucks and I don’t have a payment.

    The brake caliper system and front wheel bearings are my only gripes. I HATE working on brakes and I perceive these unit bearings to be less reliable than serviceable bearings. Overall I’ve beat the chit out of it and it’s never left me stranded. Maintenance is key and issues won’t resolve themselves.

    Hoping I have this as long as the previous truck.
    We're keeping the Silverado at least through the summer for one of the kids to drive.

    Next week, I'll see about getting an appointment for a spray-in bed liner. I'm also going to get some side steps.

    If you are looking for any CDJR, I recommend Sorg Dodge in Goshen. A complete absence of hassles is a nice change of pace. There was absolutely no attempt to upsell me on accessories or extended warranties. When we bought the Pacifica at another CDJR dealership, it felt like we were being held hostage.

    At Sorg, things were just so laid back and easy.

    I can feel the extra 80hp....probably more now that the Silverado is tired. The back seat is cavernous.

    Sorg never had what we were looking for, and their prices were higher than other dealers.
    For service, we use Tyler. They've been amazing for our warranty repairs.
    If you're interested in the MaxCare, I can give you the contact info for the best guy, and best price.
    Nice ride.

    What's wrong? Couldn't find a Tundra for less than 10 grand OVER sticker price?:D

    You're like the 5th person I've heard of switching from Chevy to Dodge in the last couple months.

    Bought it in May 2020, was previously driving a 2004 Mazda 6 with 170,000 flawless miles until we had a fender bender with a doofus driving a snowplow, then it “mysteriously” caught fire in my driveway in the middle of the night… used the money from that and bought the wife a ‘16 jeep Cherokee, I inherited her 2004 Pontiac vibe. Drive that for two years before I had had enough of that turd. Love this truck, I’ve put about 40k miles on it and it’s been great. Previous owner did a heck of a job keeping it well maintained.

    I would have been fine with another Chevy...but I don't mind the change and it seems the Chevy dealers believe their trucks to be made from a precious metal of some sort.

    I drive the company truck the most, 2013 dodge 2500.
    My truck is a 2020 GMC AT4 with less than 10k on it. The wife drives a 2015 Ford fusion sitting at about 125k

    My newest truck to date was a 99 F-150, this one almost scared me when I gave her the beans on the test drive :lmfao:
    Yeah man, they giddyup!

    I have the 5.0, with a cai/exhaust/tune. It's great fun to drive. I made the mistake of driving a tuned 3.5TT......and now my truck feels slow.

    I feel a bit out of place with all these trucks but about a month ago I sold my 09’ GTI with 115k miles and picked up a 17’ Audi A6 Competition. It’s more suited for my elderly body but still has enough umph for my boy racer heart. 3.0 liter Supercharged V6 with 8 Speed Automatic with Sport Mode and shifter paddles. Sport suspension and differential, Drive Select, Hud, full surround camera, lane assist, adaptive cruis control, fully powered leather sport seats with heat, heated steering wheel, etc, etc. very comfortable car with enough power to have some fun in the Autobahn, ER, I mean interstate. 26598182-7B60-4BB7-B404-0FDA6A65CFCC.jpeg 034D13A5-5F42-4217-9D47-2C535C917754.jpeg 49661496-C8C6-47D8-BC21-6FB9DB4A049D.jpeg 91D024E0-95B5-4E38-ABBC-CDC0B4750797.jpeg 74A06D61-CDA9-4ED6-822A-A85EC882A9DB.jpeg CF33144D-6648-454D-94CC-6C8D52CAEF43.jpeg 8B655FD4-9ED1-4C48-B50F-D167ABC801CD.jpeg
