Find out why they are called stealerships this morning.....
 
Ok so my mirrors are power/heated, well ever since i bought it the power adjust has not worked in the drivers side mirror due to the gears being stripped, so i took it to the dealer this morning, and they said the mirror needs replaced (really? i couldn't tell. idiots.), so i asked how much.

Dealer - "Oh about 5 and a quarter"

Me(being the smartass i am) - "Oh cool, $5.25"

Dealer - "No, FIVE HUNDRED TWENTY FIVE"

Me - Bell on door rings and me and my truck leave.

1a auto has my mirrors for 250$ a pair. WHAT THE :scare2:!

highway robbery.

Brand new aftermarkets are way cheaper. Just don't have the fancy heat wave on the glass.

Yea i seen them on 1A auto, I knew how much i could get them aftermarket before i even went in, just went in to see if i could get it done atleast reasonably so i didn't have to order them and do it myself. But so much for that.

And I don't know how they can charge $8 for a quart of ATF. :s:

Youngblood 09-07-2011 09:47 PM

A mirror is a mirror, I'm not gonna gain any HP from them unlike all my Cummins stickers :tttt:, so if it ain't mopar oh well, as long as it works.

What makes the 6.7 injectors so much cheaper, cant even get rebuilds for that price on the 05,that i would trust buying that is.

$1400/each for the 6.7 injectors, $1400x6= $8400

I went into the local Gm dealer to get a fuel filter for my rig, so I asked for one, the parts guy brings me some no-name POS filter, and says $50, "I said no I want the AC/Delco filter", he rings it up.... $110... WOW!! "I said ok no I'm good", so he starts ringing up the cheap no-name one and I said "no I'm good" and left I went across the street, got a fleetguard for $40:argh: Its plain sickening what they charge for anything at dealerships

Oh yea back in may I called the old stealership for a tappet cover gasket... Just the gasket not the cover or even a rod or two. They wanted 124.87 for the gasket! I almost dropped the phone. That's a whole tank of diesel! So I went over to napa and they had the gasket for.... 18 bucks... I bought 2 of them just because it was cheap.
