You know in being a new owner OP; I am comming to the conclusion that a big part of my success will be on who I choose to repair my work truck.I started with Detroit and Freightliner (I fiqured to go to the engine builder and truck maker). However after being $400 lighter, I am disapointed with their performance and think I am better to find a small mom n pop operation close to hime.
Well I had freightliner look for an air leak out on the road, n after $200 they couldnt find one and asked do I want to spend more trying to find it....an obvious he11 no!
Out 200 for nothing.
I went to Detroit for a Dyno and check for a water leak, they said the leak was at the elbow arm n they wouldnt touch it cuz it was a freightliner issue.....out $200 again, but at least I had a dyno report.
Lot of $ tho for Info.
I cant help but think I am way better off with a smaller operation who I can get more accountabilty out of and been combing my area for references to a good independant diesel shop in my area and have two to check out today.
