SO, DO you want unskilled non-union labor to build YOUR TRUCK?! You must have voted for Bush. UNION AND PROUD OF IT !! but this does not excuse corner cutting so these dam CEO's can have 6 fig salaries. when i pay over 30 grand for a vehicle i want the best labor to build it and the parts better = the sum i paid!

They simply cut the petcock out due to the lack of service requirement for the coolant. With the recomended service being at 150K for the coolant they didn't see the need for the radiator to have it's own drain.

I agree, in this case the beancounters are "they" and we all have the same opinion for them.
