    When I had my Cascadia with a DD15 it was ALWAYS more expensive to service than what they posted. The later DD15s are even worse because they require synthetic oil.

    Back in the days that I was there, once Phoenix needed to do some work on my truck. Early evening he backed my truck out of the shop with both windows open. That night a torrential rain storm and you can guess what happened to my truck. Next day I get a phone call telling me. In the end, due to extra down time, I was reimbursed about $1k

    That is good to know.
    No one said anything when I got my new truck so I just kept the regular gallon of oil that I've always gotten from the shop.
    It hasn't needed a top up yet, and it shouldn't before the first b-service.

    If you think that's bad look at Walmart. Their median wage for in store employees is below the poverty level and the Waltons could buy that 5 billion net worth about 26 times over. They also happen to be based in the same city. Must be something in the air in Little Rock AR

    Perhaps Navajo Express will be bought out by Knight-Swift?
    Navajo Express hauls a lot of beef and beer, 2 main staples of the American diet.

    Meh no one holds a gun to Walmart employees head and force them to work there. If that is what they (employees) believe is a fair wage for their time they stay there.

    And I am going to say something controversial I honestly believe there should be no federal minimum wage.
    You're probably actually see the minimum wage go up then companies would actually have to compete instead they all say oh sorry minimum wage is so in so.

    It happen North Dakota McDonald's when the majority of people in the area went to work in oil field they (McDonalds) had to rise starting wage to 15 bucks.
    To get people to even think about working for them.
     
    Jimbo56 and spyder7723 Thank this.
