Thanks for the post TC. I'm glad you're sharing your findings here.. this is a open forum and I encourage discussions from all, even if we don't agree. :)
I just want this thread to have a nice clean discussion, I don't tolerate name calling and/or bashing of one another or their beliefs on an...
Welcome, most likely you lost the motor. Which is not uncommon.. hopefully the dealer can you get a new one put in within a timely matter.
Since the dealer has done all of your maintenance, it should make the warranty process go smoother! So that's a plus.
We have new members daily, why wouldn't it still be working?
It's growing by the day! I'm hoping to get a dedicate mobile app very soon so members can browse the site easier from a app!
How many miles are on yours? Have you experienced a lot of problems to have that opinion, or just by reading the forums?
I would consider trading it in if you're unhappy, life's to short to keep something that you don't like. :)

I wish I had the magical answer, because I would sell it before it blew up! :D
We have few members here over 150K... I do know that.
I was shooting at the outdoor range last week (100 + degrees), and my truck ran for about an hour straight while by buddies kids and lady stayed "cool". I'm not afraid to let it run, but I was 100+ miles from home, so I knew it would regen before getting back home in the "city".
