Quote from: Happy Gilmore on September 25, 2016, 10:44:59 PMEvergreen Ford/Chevy has all my business from here on out. They have helped me a long time ago on my 1998 150, gladly helped me w parts foe my dyi front axle f 350 job and now match lowest price I can find on tires and give a cheap diesel oil change w service work. Hard to beat. I'll buy my next rig from them for sure. Low price guarantee is a Ford program. It's not specific to Evergreen Ford. We all do it. Also, $40 for an oil change on a diesel truck is a significant net loss for the dealer. Honestly not sure why or how they would do it. They must like working for free and then some.

Warranty applies to original owner. However, defective/unsafe equipment failures is a different issue. SCHWAB guy said warranty is mainly one year on a cosmetic issue but, structural defects should be life time. Schwab has got to be a sizeable customer. If they can't get a supplier to warranty one good customers wheel....well??? I had shocks, alignment, airbags and brakes done there on the truck in the last month and did wheel bearings, new trailer wheels and tires as well. Also, last year had my ford in for alignment, shocks. So, it isn't like I'm not a customer. Well, so far it is unlikely I will be again. And the car/tractor hauler and horse trailer are needing tires so....yeah...they might lose a decent customer

Not a ton of benefit to allow wheels other than weight, and in light duty trucks the weight difference between that and steel isn't enough to make the argument.

Polished aluminum wheels also dissipate heat way better than chrome steel wheels.
