I got woke up this morning to my neighbor knocking on the door. It appears the contractor building a new house down the street decided to paint all the cabinets and doors in the garage with the doors open with 15 MPH winds blowing in my direction. He put a nice free coat of white paint on my truck and three of my neighbors trucks! What a way to start my days off.

That absolutely sucks! :D

 

I'd go drag his ass over to see what he is responsible for and what he plans on doing about it.

 

Using a clay bar may get the over spray off.

Well the guy doing the painting doesnt speak English, and me and the neighbors have called the Builder all morning but he isnt returning our calls, which is complete BS.

That is another problem with our society. I don't want to, nor should I have to learn another f**king language.

I would be pissed too. BUT, if it was my truck, I would be washing it off ASAP. The longer it sits on the clearcoat, the harder it will be to get off without screwing up the clearcoat.

 

It sucks, but in the end, it's your truck. What if they don't do anything about it?

 

Get it off of there ASAP!

I was in Mexico one year for Spring Break. 3 Things you need to know

 

Cerveza = Beer.

El Baño = The Bathroom

Puta = Bitch/Whore/Slut/etc.

 

Just walk over to him and yell "PUTA!" and shake your fist while looking real angry like. He'll get your point. :cheers:

 

 

And I agree with Jeff about washing it ASAP. Not just a wet paper towel either, do it right. :lol:

Thats ****ed up. I'd be extremely pissed. The sad thing is he's probably pissed at you and thinks you should learn Spanish.

 

Some more words/phrase that might come in handy..."pinche pendejo" which pretty much translates to "****ing dumbass."

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      https://precisionlubrication.com/articles/oil-filter-efficiency/     For them it is a problem of $$$$ and compliance. To cover both they have to lie from the heart.    Government wants low waste oil numbers so the bar needs to be very low on contamination to met that requirement.  Consumer wants cheap maintenance (perceived cost). Again requiring a low bar.  OEM wants high margins at a cost effective warranty rate and lots of repeat customers. More low bar.  Filter manufacture wants the same thing the OEM wants. See the pattern?   Consumers are fickle and also want perfection requiring a HIGH bar. Inconsistent with all of the above. Consumers can be, when the put their minds to it, inquisitive, love winning arguments which requires some useful information to be available to support them. And this is where it gets sticky and the lies begin.    Information needs a solid well grounded point of reference if we are to compare in a useful way. There is a standard for this.  ISO 4548-12. This standard sets the particle size at a specific Beta ratio and darn few are faithful to its intent.    If they don't state the test method they change the particle size or the Beta ratio to hit a perceived favorable standard. They obscure the information in a way as to prevent direct comparisons leaving the consumer with one method. UOA's with an ISO 4406 test result. Pricey and not allot of labs willing to do the work. Lobby work happens everywhere, not just at the seat of government.

      IF,IF,IF. If they cared about quality instead of profit and this applies to any company, what a concept.

      2001 GMC Sierra - Banging feeling in steering wheel

      By Christopher Miller · Posted

      Good Morning Gents..hope everyone is enjoying a beautiful saturday morning. I have a 2001 GMC Sierra that I bought used in 2018. I am the 2nd owner and its a beautiful truck. Ive put about 60,000 miles on it and recently the front end has felt funny. Kind of loose when hitting bumps adn sometimes I actually feel a "bang" in the steering wheel. I took it to a local guy who said that everything was tight and he tightened the steering box. It didnt feel much better, so I had him replace the front shocks, which had noto been done since I bought it. It had the check enging light on so I took it into a local garage to fix that and check out the suspension. Everything is original and the rubber bushings that I can see look bad. They said everything was tight and there wasnt any play in the front end. Im concerned about the banging feeling in the wheel. Ive been driving this truck for 8 years, so I know how it usually feels and this is something new. Its a second vehicle, so I dont drive it all the time, but Im trying to use it more often. I live out in the country and some of the  roads are kind of rough and I alive on gravel roads. Anyone deal with anything like this before?
