Tire is def in good condition I will say that. Price was all in left the old tire, balanced and mounted. I hadn’t bought a used tire in 4-5 years so it was sticker shock, with the taxes it came out 77 and some change.
Had to grab a used tire today because I got a sidewalk sidewall hole. 70 bux plus tax for a used Michelin what in thee duck is going on out here. NYC is a money pit.
Insurance/warranty it’s not much difference between em and don’t think one is better than the other. Both aim to collect as much as possible and payout as little as possible. You could probobly negotiate a lower sales price on a new vehicle if you waived your “included” 3yr whatever warranty...
How difficult is it to maintain a 2nd battery that’s not being cycled by the alternator? Do they need to be replaced less, or more often than the primary battery.
Yup GM recommends it at 100k and I’ve found several GM dealers who will tell you they won’t touch it at that mileage. People will also tell you it’s ancient thinking being worried that changing the fluid will cause issues. Was it a flush or just a change of fluid? The flushes seem to be what you...
With all the historical information available the last thing we need is forAi to start ‘reasoning’. Perhaps the should have named it artificial smartness. I’m not going to argue semantics of smart and intelligent.
They only work on 2017’s and up? That dealer must have a wonderful clientele. Information would ha e been more useful before you left it with them 10 days. Sounds like they did nothing at all.
Automated and self washes are vastly different. The self washes I go to are pressure wash and foam cannon equipped. The only scratch risk is being careless with the pressure washer hose due to the way it hangs. I keep a bullseye blower in the trunk for drying. Ceramic coating makes it fast and easy.
Need some of current mileage for context. Are you saying you’ve beaten 300k in K2?
ETA - I’ve personally observed 2 900’s (Tahoe 5.3 and Eaky 6.2) that went over 200k with AFM in tact. Both are still running to my knowledge but the Tahoe lost the transmission at 265k
I don’t think one should put all their faith in a pump reading either. I know there are checks and balances but the financial incentive to cheat is a variable that can’t be ignored. One day I will do a manual calculation of my gas mileage for SAG since I do use the same station most times I buy...
11’ Tahoe in my brothers possession now has 263k with AFM working. A relative has a 14 Escalade with 178k and no issues. Transmission recently went bad on the Tahoe for the 1st time
All of the comments I’ve seen have never indicated that the cars computer needs to be recalibrated. Once you question the cars computer how do not question the gas stations pumps being accurate? (The stations in my area are always getting busted doing something :( ) I would imagine the people...
I’m surprised this post has 9 comments without someone pointing out how “inaccurate” the computer is. I’ve never actually did the math on paper, I trust the computer. Yours did excellent.
