Truck Owners
Where do you go for service? Do you guys go to the dealer? Do you bring it to a reputable shop like Midas? Do you DIY?

Ian you can do routine maintenance yourself, but Ralph made an excellent point where did you take your car?

Especially DIY oil changes. On my Ford PowerStroke 7.3 turbo diesel it drank 15 quarts of oil and used an oil filter the size of a football. I would just buy 4 gallons of oil and a filter and have it done in 30 minutes with no ramps. It takes a while for all that oil to drain....
