I was so happy when the service tech told me that it was only $129 for the alignment, but it didn't last long. I love that they do a courtesy inspection every time I take the truck in for any minor adjustment so that I can work on anything they find. Today, I almost had a heart attack. They told me that my spark plugs needed to be change and they were charging me $275 to take out 6 spark plugs(screws) and put 6 new one in I told him that I will pay for the spark plugs and put them in myself. I didn't realize that the damn spark plugs cost $23 each, still I saved $150 and it only took me 1/2 hour. Now I am ready for the long road trip to Cal and Washington St.
