    Oil Pressure Question

    I think GM is on of the last automakers to put a real oil pressure gauge in their trucks. My wifes Tahoe does just what you describe, gauge moves with rpm. You'll also notice when the engine is cold the pressure is higher than a warm engines pressure. My 2008 Ford Superduty has an idiot...

    First Post and I Have question regarding front end alignment.

    Hi folks, this is my first post here although I've been lurking for a year or more. I hate to have my first post be a question about an issue instead of helping one of you guy's/gal's out but I'll ask it anyway. My wife drives an 03' Tahoe Z71 and yesterday I had new tire installed along...
