Hey, looking for a consensus on how useful these plastic skid plates on the trucks are, and if anyone takes them off. (The 2 piece go on the front end and are under the radiator and engine.)

No harm no foul - i get that, but i took them off to do undercoating and i found that they act like a diaper and catch spilled oil from my oil changes. Who knows if they would catch a real leak and let it go undetected. Even have a honeycomb mold that seems perfect for holding fluids.

What do you guys think?

  One could interpret this to mean the level should be right in the middle of the marked area, above the top line is indicated to be just as bad as below the bottom...

  No, when I fill with new it's within the marked area on the stick, when I drain, it's still within the marked area. I've never measured where within the marked area it is at different times, if I were to estimate the differential between the highest and lowest point I'd guess less than 1/4".

  update your account to include the make/model/year/engine/trim level of your vehicle. Then check all your fuses and that everything is plugged in around your doors.
