no, fuck that place. I refuse to go there after they tried fucking over my brother on an inspection. They said the exhaust was illegal (glass pack with a turn down) and I had to read them the DMV inspection manual to prove they were wrong.

I took it to Omilin’s.

I’m reading this laughing because my stepdad had the SAME exact issue on a similar year F150. When he gets home, I’ll ask what he had to do to fix it, because as I recall, it was a fiasco for him also.

Not sure… I’m at 124,xxx. That being said, mine has zero rust, zero mechanical issues, and will last another 900,000 miles with proper maintenance 🙂

I’m just messing with you because it’s fun Paul…

A Dodge without giant bubbles above the rear wheels? I don’t believe it. Does it have used car dealer fender flares?

My brother has an '05 Ram 2500 and its a big POS and has around 125k. Sure the Cummins will run forever but the tranny went at 96k, the rearend went at 111k and it eats ujoints, balljoints, shocks and other front end parts. Its got quite a few bubbles above the rear wheels and the driver’s side rocker has a quarter sized rot hole in it.

He bought the truck new in '05.

My truck has 124,9xx right now and just a slight amount of rust bubbling thru the paint and no mechanical issues.

Im not selling it and the only Mustang Id ever consider buying is a '78 Cobra.

Really though Im done with toys and two vehicles is enough for me right now. Im going to enjoy not having car payments and start saving for a house.
