    of course it spent little time in shop. they prob service & change oil every 100,000 miles. :D

    the smiley face is indication that the post is humor not to be taken seriously. some needed this clarification.

    Penske are maintenance freaks. The longest this one went between oil changes was 25K.

    Prime's trucks get oil changes every 50k miles. That's way o/o who bought Prime's trucks had crank bearing issues.

    I believe that's a Penske policy - oil changes every 25 or 30k.

    You're doing a pretty good job of [​IMG] on it to not be trying.

    Oh....I didn't realize you had worked in the garage at Penske to know that what you say is true. I am soooooo sorry. I mean, otherwise it would be useless lip service, right?

    you may want to reread my post I STATED (in my opinion.) I am honest about my opinion, meaning I honestly believe what I say. weather it is factual or not, may not be known at this point. I do know that some co have this practice , never said I had any affiliation at penske.

    So rather than spout something you really don't know is true why not just congratulate the man on his purchase and move on? I am just trying to find out what about his original post made you want to make the negative comment you did. Bad day, or just don't want somebody to feel good about something?
