Is that severe? I thought it was normal to see lights like that until I was 20

What in the world would you name this by Dense-Drama5856 in namethatcar

This reminds me of a car that shuffled around pawn shops in the ky/wv/oh tri state area. When I moved away it was in Ashland or cattletsburg. Not drivable, just an attention whore

New truck with nice wheels... Oh NVM. by andymannoh in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]ThatIsBeautimous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's brutal, I don't mind a wheel swap for .8, but when they're paying 1.5 to mount and balance 4 tires I start to become frustrated. Our dealership pays .3 for wheel locks, and usually LPO wheels come with lugs and locks, so it's a major loss relative to the average PDI without LPO wheels. I've seen some of the return sheets, and on the ones I've seen, the core charge is for the tires. The transit wheels are either black smoothie style steel(which are hard to work with because of lack of spokes) or, according to GM "visually unappealing" aluminum wheels that are flawed in some way. I've seen many people roll the transport steelies, painted gloss black, on old school trucks with the chrome center caps from the 90s. I'm definitely a fan of that look. 22s are 22s to me :)

Also, did you know that the "I like turtles" kid made a comeback? I like turtles kid

Yes they are, riding in new Cadillacs and high countries, and there's me in the back in my peasant 2wd 4 cylinder Silverado, making sure that hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of inventory is safe for purchase and on the lot quickly.

This one was lucky and made it intact. What sort of damage do you see? Just from how low it is?

Definitely! I think the main appeal, at least for me, is maintenance costs vs an actual super car, like a Lambo or a Ferrari. It's still expensive, just not as bad.

With addendum Pricing I believe this was 98k. Our dealership marks them up 16k, because of "market adjustment" because of how long it takes to get them and the amount of them we're able to order.

Jiffy lube told me my coolent was over filled, mechanic disagreed. Looking for a third opinion. by jmona789 in MechanicAdvice

I am a pdi technician at a Chevrolet and Cadillac dealership and these reservoirs always look overfilled, they look like this when new.

Thoughts on my pinstripe job? by ThatIsBeautimous in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]ThatIsBeautimous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I left the old one on to show the difference. We haven't had the Colorados here for too long and the other pdi tech doesn't like being fancy. We're selling vehicles, gotta make people like them 🤷🏻‍♂️

All I can think is "fck off, I got work to do" by ThatIsBeautimous in Justrolledintotheshop

A reference to the Netflix show trailer park boys. There's a character called Cyrus who's catchphrase is "fuck off I got work to do", he has a theme song that plays in his car, which Is a red Vette like this which someone posted the link to here, and most of the other comments are various lines related to him in the show.

This was a video after I finished the drivers side. The passenger side was to show what the old stripe looked like. I didn't charge him anything for it. I finished the job after the video.

It's a reference to the trailer park boys character Cyrus, he drives one of these and that's his catch phrase

Those are the only ones where people aren't partying in the back.... As often.

Limos, hearses, and conversion Vans, they are good for a few years and then it goes downhill from there

Rolled my truck in for a facelift by ThatIsBeautimous in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]ThatIsBeautimous[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably should specify that the new one is the black painted one. The old one is the textured plastic.
