    • @ccap41 @Drew Dowdell  Pep Boys is currently owned by Icahn Automotive Group LLC Icahn Automotive Group LLC owns Pep Boys, Auto Plus, Precision Tune Auto Care, AAMCO Total Auto Care I agree that once the lawsuit is over I can see VW picking up the servicing of Scout EVs. 350 miles of range for the Truck or SUV with AA/CP if they support it on an 800V system is a win and will have me very interested in the EVs to own.
    • These were awesome engines, just needed a huge engine bay as any straight-line engine needs. I call BS on this, I feel that if you cannot respect the cost of taking care of your truck and to me abuse it by damaging it, then your just lazy and clearly have no idea about how to use tools properly. I have heavily used my trucks, SUVs and CARs and never babied them, but always kept them looking sharp. Yes, accidents happen and sometimes when one is tired you might put a scratch on it, but this truck has just been abused by someone that does not care. His statement of a Truck you're afraid to beat-up is no longer a truck is BS, you do not need to beat up a truck to still have it as a useful tool. A person who abuses their vehicles tells me a ton about their approach to how they work and live and they are just lazy and do not care. Do you really want a person like that working with you or doing work for you when they cannot take any pride in their own tools, makes one question if they would really take any pride in their job, products they do, etc.
    • I'm saying that the retail store was removed from Pepboys. Old footprint: PepBoys:  Service bays + Retail auto parts and accessories (typically the retail area alone was bigger than an AutoZone) AutoZone: Retail auto parts and accessories New Footprint: PepBoys: Service bays only AutoZone: Retail auto parts only
    • If PepBoys was replaced by either AutoZone or Advance Auto, you're saying a service shop(with a retail store (PepBoys)) was replaced by just retail stores? That's the only reason I was suggesting it may not have been AutoZone/Advance. 
    • Always liked those old Dodges...I learned to drive in the mid 80s in a '79 Dodge Power Wagon 4x4 short wide box pickup my Dad had.  Very numb steering--no on center feel at all, bouncy suspension, would stall on left turns.  Was very clean w/ like 25k miles..silver green inside and out.
