    25k mile oil change / B service intervals 30 k now that we run synthetic. They've always been on top of and willing to fix any issue I've had with my ride no questions asked .

    The synthetic oil is something that they have just started doing in say the last 6 months. but like he said. they are always on top of fixing anything we report to them and always do the services as long as the driver does his job and stays on top of things.

    Id buy one after seeing how they do things in the shop around here
     
    victor moraru Thanks this.

    Millis is very good about keeping thier equipment up. They spare nothing to make sure thier equipment is in top shape. As an example, recently while on the road, I busted an air line just under the glad hand. Premier care came out and installed one of those cheap plastic pigtails, as soon as I got it into maintenance last week for a B service, Millis mechanics took that junk off and not only replaced the line Premier care put on, but they replaced BOTH lines with brand new lines. A month or so ago, I put my truck in at Black River Falls to have an inverter installed. The mechanic there refused to release my truck until he had gone over every inch of it. He found the auto greaser was malfunctioning, so he installed a brand new Auto Greaser. Millis takes truck maintenance VERY seriously.

    My truck has had the red stop engine light come on and off for the last 5 months...I report it and they do something to reset it but it continues to come on. I had a fuel filter issue the last few weeks, fuel filter gauge was hitting 15 on hills, I put the truck in the shop in Cartersville and they had it a week (along with the red stop engine light), I came out, fuel filter was still bad but the red light was off. had to put the truck back in the shop in Trenton and ot got changed. The red light came back on yesterday. My truck is a 2011, out of warranty, and getting close to trade...

    By the way, are the tractors positive traction? Do BOTH front drive wheels have power to them at the same time when rolling and when you lock in the rear differential, do ALL 4 wheels have power to them?
