i guess somebody opened there door or someone punched or threw something at my truck. Its not that big to be honest but it still bothers me, its in the back left side where the truck flares. I just went to autozone and bought something to pop it out. But it wouldnt work cuz its not a flat surface, pretty disappointed in people that would do something like that, Its barley my second week with the truck and this happens terrible haters everywhere. And thats because i park far from everyone alone i dont mind walking. So now im stuck i dont know if i should take it to the dealership tomorrow morning or just go somewhere where they pop dents. ANy info or help i would appreciate it

Use some sort of a small suction cup, maybe like the gps windshield mounts suction cup.

Sucks dude. Sorry to hear that. People are real assholes. You park in the back and take 2 spots because you want to treat it well and douchebags try to ruin it.

 

Hence why I keep the shovel in the truck......

My truck was 5 days old when I lowered the tail gate down on my trailer jack causing a small dent. I just has a local dent removal guy get it out for $60 and you cant even tell where it was.

I paid $80 for PDR on a dent i had on my hood on my 09 Tahoe and they remove the dent 100% so it was like it was never there. I would imagine they could do the same as long as dent is not in a crease on the body.... or to deep.

Same happened to me after 3 weeks. I went to a big name mall here in Texas, and I guess some idiot backed up into my front passenger side door with a trailer ball :(

San Antonio drivers are the worst. That sucks.

Find a paintless dent removal company near you. 50-100 bucks and you are dent-less again. I just leave my dents b/c when I get them fixed, I just get more :(

You said it isn't big, it is a truck who cares? Little dings, nicks and scuffs are part of it if you even use the truck for anything it is designed for. Spend $80 now (the cost of one fill up) to fix it and then you will have another ding 3 weeks later. What's the point? I can understand making a fuss for a pristine sports car that is a weekend driver but a DD is going to get road rash and other stuff, no point fretting over it... Plus now that it happened you can breath a sigh of relief.

 

Back into a poll making a big dent or scraping up against a column scuffing paint pretty bad then I would do a home repair on it. This is also why I am not a fan of black, shows way to many imperfections on something that will have imperfections. Plus in Texas it is just hot as S*^T.

      Gas Prices

      WTI futures / speculation is just that. WTI futures <> current 4-7% inflation and national average gas price over $4.00/gallon.   The spot price, at delivery, is currently $87-$95/barrel which is why gas prices remain high.   Edit: oH mY gOd mEnTaL BrEaKdoWn In tHE pOsT aBOve mInE.

      He does, actually. In another unrelated video he mentions the president called him in the middle of the night to relay some information on a cause (religious based) that he's invested in. Glenn expressed concern that another leftist administration could wield too much power with some procedure the Pentagon was using, classifying certain religions a certain way. Being that he is LDS (Latter Day Saints), he gets hate all the time from ALL over the political spectrum, so he's invested in this. Trump called him back at 5AM to tell him he had made some changes to that classification.   So, yes, they are and have been in contact regularly since the start of the administration. Glenn, of course, always asks his permission before discussing anything on the air.   I already spent an hour or more just searching for these videos. I may have my numbers wrong - I'm not a numbers guy. It may have been a MILLION barrels, not 1.5. The point is, our President, by his actions, gives a crap about America, and US - this is completely OPPOSITE the actions of the prior administration who projected hatred for anyone who wasn't following the left's edicts in lock-step.   Remember, they called January 6th an "Insurrection", when there were ZERO weapons among the crowd, undercover FBI agents agitating the crowd, along with paid leftists acting as aggressors, egging the crowd on in an attempt to whip everyone into a frenzy. It's all been proven.  Pelosi refused Trumps request for more National Guard troops. This smells 100% like an inside job for those with critical thinking skills. Only a handful of guys in the crowd got wrapped up in that, thankfully, but EVERYONE was searched out based on cell phone data, and charges were brought against many. And 6 or so people were locked up and left in solitary confinement for YEARS with ZERO due process!! If you give the slightest crap about our Nation, REGARDLESS of your political leanings, this should frighten you to your core. This is what men suffered, bled, fought, and died against 250 years ago!   This has gone FAR BEYOND left vs. right. This is a  threat to America, and our way of life. This is PRECISELY why Trump, a BILLIONAIRE who could have chosen to take Melania and sit on some tropical island that he could afford to buy himself and RELAX, instead chose to run for office, get hate from literally every corner of the media, get ATTEMPTS on his LIFE constantly, and begin to repair some of the severe damage that's been done to this Great Nation.   I don't know why I bother wasting my precious time here. Everyone has their minds made up. They won't realize we all were correct until it's too late ... after they elect another tyrant that hates America to office (Obama), or another puppet whose administration is secretly running the show behind the scenes (Biden).

      DTC P2C48 auxiliary cooling pump

      By Newduramaxh*ar · Posted

      Hello, Im in a bit of a bind maybe someone could help me out.  We towed our trailer, up a pretty steep incline (395 north of Bishop) done it before no issues. I got to our campground turn truck off, i restarted the truck about an hour later  and check engine light turns on. Found DTC P2C48,  unable to reset.  This morning i removed the plug, there's 12.12v at the plug. Reservoir near firewall is full of coolant, checked for leaks nothing. I dont hear or feel the pump turning on. My dilemma, is nearest dealer  is 4hrs away that has the pump instock. Is it safe to drive? By me checking the available voltage at the connector and not hearing/feeling pump turn on, is it a bad pump? Please help...

      The figure bandied about is "100 million barrels" so I think a decimal is off somewhere. But that doesn't change the outcome much when the expected flow through the Strait through over the same time should have been more than 2,000,000,000.   So 5%, if that number is even true, and there's sufficient data to believe it's not. Give that man another Fifa peace prize! 5% is less than the flow of a grapefruit-sized prostate blocking the release of cheap lager after a night of bingo.
