and for the record
I would have asked for the same thing.
Can't hurt to see what they can do for you.

You know, REPEATEDLY.

Why not ask them if you can just give them a grand and maybe they can give YOU a lifetime alignment no matter what vehicle you have.
But after your 5th new vehicle in a year, I would check your cheerios for drano.

A) 6 vehicles in 15 years and change.
B) You ream me and then basically say never mind?
C) I prefer rat poison with my Cheerios.

LOL...ask my stepkids. That was not a reaming.
It just sounded like you EXPECTED it free, that's all.
I think your ask and the end resolution was more than
fair from both perspectives.

If they had said sorry, we're the only game in town and it's your fault
you bought lifetimes every lifetime though I would have been curious
if you would have thrown a fit or just accepted it.

The only person I trust to align for me is Acura and 1 particular tech that does all my work.

I'm not sure how free came across, I never thought that. I was hoping for 1/2 & am happy with that. I'd have taken the 20 off without arguing with the store manager but been irritated.

I don't have anyone like that.

Also, this is not happening until early July when I get the rear springs and install the suspension.

Plus, on a truck with as little as you drive it's not THAT imperative. This ain't a 911 you're tracking!

Sub is in it's temporary location. I will try to get it into the stock location, I may try to put the DD driver in the stock box if the JL box does not work. I replaced the OEM crummy JBL "woofer" with the slim JL driver from this box about the second day I had the truck.

WTF??

Not complaining, happy for this to become normal.

Usually after late April, early May it's never below 90.

I am consistent if nothing else.

I took advantage of the cool weather and pressure washed the underside of the Sequoia. 12+ year old pump on the Karcher took a dump & it looks like they are nla.

I switched to electric a while ago.
Is the pump something you can get at to clean the intake on it?

The motor runs perfectly. The issue is the pump isn't pumping.

I disassembled the intake & exhaust ports, they are clear.

Looking for a replacement now.

Here's where it shows discontinued.
https://www.ereplacementparts.com/30...p-1005502.html

Found the pump on eBay, pretty sure this is about what I paid for the unit in 2008.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/35317368228...EAAOSwP99fOsbr

What electric unit do you use?

My Wife constantly tells me not to save things. I have had these since 2015, bought for my X5 that I sold. I just ordered the 5th quart the Sequoia needs.

And yes, I still have a fully functional VCR.

lol

5th quart & pump came, needs a solution to the stupid Redline bottle opening.

So I dug an even older partial (very little) Amsoil bottle out of the archives.

I was finally able to get a pic of the radar detector screen on the Kenwood. 24 dollar harness is a bargain!


A month before I got the Sequoia I threw away my Tundra skid plate that had been sitting in the garage for over 2 years.

Picked this one up from the Tundra forum for 30 bucks. It was clean and I painted it.

This is oem, the one it came with was an oxidized mess. Just replaced what should have been there. (there will be offroading) Waiting to do the suspension, wish I didn't have to wait until late June/early July.

I'm glad my misery provides you with entertainment. In demand items take time to be manufactured, I saved almost 3k thanks to that with the 86 rims so I'm good with it.

I'll submit my bill for entertainment services rendered.

I lived 700 miles into Mexico for 5 years. Every 180 days I needed to renew my visa, frequently I let it lapse and was an illegal immigrant. lol

I also had to register my 'Murican registered cars which I did.
