Own gas pumps? That's the way to do it. :headbang:
They have 13 stores in this auto mall. They own them all, so it's easier to fuel all those vehicles. Place was huge!

These are the longest PDI's I've ever seen 15-30 miles is not "right off the truck", anything over 10 and you're talking joy rides.

You're right. I've purchased vehicles with 3 miles on them before. If it's over 8-9 miles on a brand new vehicle, I would be weary. Although it seems insignificant, those 5-10 miles of joy ride could cause problems down the road.

All you need is one jackass doing a downshift and pegging the tach to start damaging the valves or riding the clutch/red line shifting to cause oil burning issues at 10k miles.

My father in law does the PDI for the dealer I am buying from and he says 12-15 at delivery is acceptable.
