    After going off on the service manager when he tried to suggest to me that there wasn't an issue, it was just cold out... Things changed. I know it's a pain to get at, but the thermostat is stuck open.. They are fixing it. The body work is an annoyance, but you are right.. It's luck to find a spotless truck.

    If the dyno comes back good, I will be leaving with the truck.

    The " not impressed " comment came from the service manager trying to blow smoke up my "@&$. Can't blaming him for trying. They all do it.

    Yea they have volvo's there 2012 & I think newer.

    Plenty of pro stars on their lot.

    Waiting on the dyno to be done. Weather didn't help with timing.

    I noticed the voltage was a little low on idle, they put in new batteries and a new alternator.

    have to be careful of those emotions. They can make you do silly things... Lol

    Glad I took my vacation time. The storm that moved thru yesterday has bogged things down a little. So the wait is on for the dyno.

    Come back after you've owned that truck for 6 months. Let's see if youre so quick to throw up the lol's

    btw, glad to see u didnt get ripped off putting money down before ever seeing any trucks. Thats risky business...

    I wasn't concerned with losing the deposit.
