  1. I suggest you send the firehouse nozzle to a firefighter to test out.. Oo oo I can help with that!!!
  2. thats awesome! we want more!
  3. I think they've tested different sticks before and must not have been pleased with the results. It would be nice especially on my Wife's Explorer..
  4. I got a phone call this morning from the manager and he mentioned an issue with my wheel bearing, which is covered under the warranty..
  5. wheel was damaged from the impact hammer to break the lug nut.. the wheel now comes off.. everything I've read shows the assembly has to be removed and if you remove the bearing, it needs to be replaced versus reused.. I get it back tomorrow and will be dropping it off Wed night/Thursday morning at another dealer.. can't drop it off sooner as the Wife's car is at the airport..
  6. I don't think I have enough left.. and I believe its out of stock now as I purchased it a while back.. its a very think laminate, one of the best I've ever seen, does not look, feel, or sound fake..
  7. its the passenger side rear..
  8. but its costing me a fortune! and with a Baby on the way, not needed expense! lol
  9. I was taking off the old wheels and the last lug nut/stud only spun..
  10. something like this for the cord? and according to the container store, they're made in the good ole USA..
  11. They damaged the wheel using an air hammer to get the lug nut off.. today's update: they called me and the estimate increased 500% (from ~180 to ~1000).. the service writer was very dry of course and said it is what it is.. I asked him to have the service manager call me.. a few hours later I received the call and discussed it with him and he too said it is what it is.. I said this does not seem right, how do you go from 180 to 1000? and that was without the 'outside machine shop labor' since they dont have some of the tools needed.. he offered to put it back together and I could take it elsewhere if I was more comfortable and to call him back after I thought about it.. I called and left a voicemail, just heard back now.. I told him I'll take the car as is and go elsewhere.. WTF!! I also called another dealer earlier today to give me an estimate, he said he'd check on parts and whatnot and call me back.. just got the call and he didn't get to parts department in time.. I asked for best case/worst case, he ball parked $200 to as high as $1000 since he didn't have part pricing.. seems like no matter what I am going to be paying out the arse..
  12. lol.. the Wife took the pics with her phone and sent them to me.. I just dragged them to my desktop from iMessage haha.. Now I just have to put down base moldings, some door moldings, and paint the Baby Room.. Also need to get someone in to carpet both sets of stairs.. I would love to get rid of carpet all together but the basement stairs looked frankensteined together when I pulled the carpet and I could only imagine the same results under the 1st-2nd floor stairs..
  13. and we're done with the upstairs floor!
  14. I wrote est (estimate) but autocorrect put set The manager called me and offered me a better deal in some of the other services, so I did to make it easier on me since the car was already there.. Update on the stud: they damaged the wheel to get it off, although a buddy of mine warned me that would have to happen.. No clue what the estimate will go to now..
  15. If I ever get it back from the dealer..
  16. So, last night I went to put my wheels on and on the 4th one at the 5th lug, the darn stud snapped! Dropped it off at the dealer in town this morning.. fixing the stud (set $180) and alignment ($140).. I asked about the tranny service, coolant and brake flushes, and they were higher than the dealer a town over.. on the flushes it was ~10 each more, not bad, but the tranny service was $100 more! I asked how could they be so much cheaper and he said he didn't know.. I asked if he could match/come close, he said no as if I were a jerk for asking.. After today I am pulling my business from them, no compassion, no anything from them ever.. and they've messed up stuff before.. I've been very loyal and always the same service writer, never went the extra mile for me or anything..
  17. thanks.. dropped it off at the dealer in town and ended up paying them to do the alignment too.. after today they're losing ALL my business.. I'll explain in the Maintenance thread, lol
  18. No comments on the snapped stud? lol
  19. aye aye aye.. Well I got three wheels on, got the the 4th and as I'm taking off the final lug, the fking stud snaps..
  20. it would be nice if the warranty paid for it, lol
