    I took my CTS-V to Uncle Ed's when I got it out of storage. I brought them a K&N oil filter and asked them for Mobile one. They said they only have Kendall synthetic oil. I said OK. They had 2 choices the cheape of the 2 was $105, the more expensive was $149. I said put my dip stick back in and the oil cap back on and don't touch a thing. No way I'm paying over $100 to dump 6 quarts of synthetic oil in a car!

    New GM LTx motors are like 10 quarts now. With my car and my truck both having 6.2's I will probably be changing them myself for the rest of my life! I am way to cheap to have a dealer do it...

    I believe that was exactly his point!
    A few incinerated cars means nothing relative to the financial impact of the employees and business owners.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

    That's what most of my curiosity is about. As a former technician and service advisor, I'm wondering if their pay or work schedules changed.

    To me, it's a good idea to always carry two sacks of something when you walk around. That way, if anybody says, "Hey, can you give me a hand?" You can say, "Sorry, got these sacks."
