What’s normal?

What are the alternative issues if it’s not the heater core leak?

Just driving through SoCal on the freeway. About 75° outside.

Thanks Flip. The dealer I bought it from is a couple hours away. I have dealt with my local dealer a bunch but only for work vehicles. I had read that this repair would be expensive unfortunately but I appreciate you confirming it. I haven’t been able to find any known issues or repairs done on...

Don’t think I’ll be trying this myself. I’ll definitely be taking it to the dealer. All they can say is no I guess 🤷🏽‍♂️

Those are all good questions and things I will definitely look into tomorrow morning. From what I gather online, old vehicles had access to the heater core under the hood. Nowadays it’s behind the dash and a pain in the ass to get too.

*Update* dealer said they pressurized the system both hot & cold and found nothing. Can’t find anything wrong with the heater core or any coolant leak. Can’t even replicate the smell from the vents. Not sure where to go from here. Sunday driving on freeway with max a/c on and start seeing...

I hear ya. We usually go through brakes pretty quick. Being a daily driver and a lot of city driving I would’ve expected them to wear somewhat quickly.

Really?! I had no idea. That would be great if true. 👍🏽

That would be crazy to have electric sensors to tell you to change your brakes. Wouldn’t hate it though 😂 I’m getting new tires put on tomorrow and will check out how much pad is left at that point.

Just curious if anyone has “had” to yet? I did a quick search and couldn’t find anything on here. Sorry if I missed it for all the ones who like to point that stuff out 😂. But if you have, did you go Ford or aftermarket? Cost? Personally, I think the brakes have held up great after 40k miles in...

Yes. This. This was the point of the question. 👍🏽

Thanks for all the responses. Looks like the major issues are weak sidewall and sharp rock damage possible in the tread. To each their own but I think I’ll stick with the Goodyears for now. Just can’t justify the extra money for another brand for what I’m using it for. ✌🏽

Getting all prices from Americas tire comparing specifically bfg’s to oem. The bfg’s are double the price. Hence an extra thousand dollars.

so in your opinion, it’s worth an extra thousand dollars for the bfg’s? Serious question not being sarcastic.

My pricing online at Americas Tire for direct replacement that I found is $184/ea which is a great price compared to what you’re showing above and what I found for other brands at the same size.

That’s what I’m sayin. I’m just trying to find out why people are paying twice the money for different tires other than going to a bigger size? Is it just a name brand thing 🤷🏽‍♂️

I’ve been looking at replacing my stock Sasquatch Goodyears for a little while now and wow are there a lot of options. But the thing that really gets me is the pricing. I can’t seem to justify paying double the cost of new oem’s for other brands. Can bfg’s or toyos or Bridgestones or whatever...

Where did the original ones wear out? Any pics of the wear? Just curious.
