    New truck - Engine / Transmission issues. Going to argue for dealer to give me a new a truck - frustrated.

    Companies really don't like to take ownership for making vehicles that fall apart it seems. I'd honestly expect more from KTM. My debacle is coming to an end. So at the end of it all GM customer care were willing to give me was a $2000 voucher for a new vehicle. So I called the dealership and...

    New truck - Engine / Transmission issues. Going to argue for dealer to give me a new a truck - frustrated.

    So yet another update... Finally get another call today. It's not even my agent, it's a different one doing a courtesy call for mine since she's out-of the office. She called to inform me that the part should be arriving in 4-7 business days at the dealership and then they can repair the truck...

    🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

    Law Enforcement as a whole is the most organized and best funded gang in the world. You're either in it or you're not in which case you're absolutely screwed if you're against them.

    New truck - Engine / Transmission issues. Going to argue for dealer to give me a new a truck - frustrated.

    So some people were messaging me asking me for an update, figured I'd do one in case someone else is in a similar circumstances. Truck is still at the dealership, still have a rental, it's been 7 weeks now. I called the parts manager (who I'm not angry with, they are just fixing the truck) who...

    RIP Tom "SCAR" White

    From talking with a few friends I know the police placed the firefighter at fault (was in fact on duty and didn't hookup and hinge the hose properly). So the silver lining if there is any is Toms family is suing them and will get quite a decent settlement.

    RIP Tom "SCAR" White

    Not sure if anyone had met or heard of Tom, but he was an inspirational rider in the Hayabusa forum. He was the owner of I-SHOC which made strictly Hayabusa gear and apparel. He also had the highest recorded miles on a Hayabusa on his bike "Wasabi" at 257,039 Miles (He also had a previous Gen 2...

    2022 Gas Prices - Will $2(+) per Litre slow you down?

    Everyone at my work keeps saying renewable energy is the way to go right now with stocks, but honestly oil is far from dead.

    Fentanyl - WTF?

    I had hand surgery and opted to stay awake during it. They used the smallest amount of Fentanyl for the pain. I was pretty worried it wasn't going to be enough as they fillet my hand in front of me. Within a minute I was on cloud 9, laughing and joking with a doctor and nurse who were cutting my...

    New truck - Engine / Transmission issues. Going to argue for dealer to give me a new a truck - frustrated.

    Thanks for all the advice people! So the saga slowly continues. Got a rental yesterday (a basic entry white model Silverado 2017 with dents in both sides). It's the only chevy they have and although I should be thankful to have some wheels....it's sucks not driving my fully loaded truck. My...

    New truck - Engine / Transmission issues. Going to argue for dealer to give me a new a truck - frustrated.

    I agree with both of you, just a joke. When I spoke to GM Customer Care / Onstar they said you can't even get a rental until its inspected by a technician first to ensure it's actually a valid warranty repair, and I quote "to ensure you didn't drive it into a lake or something"....right. They...

    My local dealer does not, I will hear back from the dealer I bought the truck from tomorrow. Unfortunately this dealer is also 2 hours away ( next closest city )- so they are going to have to find a way to work that in.

    New truck - Engine / Transmission issues. Going to argue for dealer to give me a new a truck - frustrated.

    Yea thats the kinda story I was looking for, and I suspected as such. They ironically do have basically the same exact truck on their lot currently so I was hoping to discuss that option, but yea I assume they are going to try and patch it. Funny enough when I talked to GM Customer Care I told...

    New truck - Engine / Transmission issues. Going to argue for dealer to give me a new a truck - frustrated.

    Yea when I called yesterday the Service team had already left, just had the one sales person at the dealership. Said he was going to email the Service Manager and CC the Head Manager of the dealer and they should get back to me tomorrow on this. So, hopeful for a decent resolution here. Just...

    New truck - Engine / Transmission issues. Going to argue for dealer to give me a new a truck - frustrated.

    Im going to assume the C8's are getting preferred treatment and get repaired ASAP in this situation. Also....Im sure it's not their daily driver and they have a back up vehicle in case of no rental. Frustrating either way for sure though. Yea I've heard all about the rental shortages - being in...

    New truck - Engine / Transmission issues. Going to argue for dealer to give me a new a truck - frustrated.

    Just looking to see what the consensus is on this, and if anyone else has been in the same predicament. In November I bought a new 2021 GMC Sierra 1500 AT4 6.2L - $70,000+ truck. Absolutely love it, always bought GM (old man retired from the Oshawa plant) and never had an issue. Anyhow a week...

    Isle of Man TT 2022

    Shut it down because you don't like it....when in reality you've never even ridden it? Ive never sky dived, but it seems dangerous so im going to petition to have it banned. Come on. They have interviewed the deceased families and even they don't want it shut down. Their husbands, sons...

    Isle of Man TT 2022

    Again the risks are there, but the riders are aware of it. That's the reason you don't see MotoGP riders doing the TT. Can they do it? For sure they can, but no way are they going to risk it. Personally I'd risk doing the TT than being the guys that fly down the 401 at 200kmh lane splitting and...

    Isle of Man TT 2022

    No one makes a rider join the TT. No one's twisting your arm, and the riders know the dangers - the majority of them have ridden the course multiple times. When people say they should stop the race, it screams I can't do that, so they shouldn't be able to either.
