It's $3.99 for premium here at Sam's club. When we were down in MX on Monday we stopped to eat dinner in Yuma and there was a Sam's there. Premium was $3.79, it was like hitting the lottery lol so I filled up again. ?

you guys have it easy, our equivalent today is $4.99 a gallon for regular
i am not about to give up my arm and leg to check pricing on premium.
I'm not sure what you call easy, here its $4.95 for regular. I believe California has the highest prices of gasoline in the US.

After living in Wichita for three years, moving back to CA and its gas prices was a shock...
havent been to canada for a while, but if memeory serves me correctly dont you use imperial gallons?

those are aprox 1.2 US gallons so that will change the sticker shock a bit

Maybe they got confused and thought you just bought the truck since it seems many of us received ours with over inflated tires. Better check the washer fluid too. They might have drained it. :p
I got mine new with overinflated tires and no washer fluid....

Should clarify: California. I don't know about their prices, but Newsom's are bad enough...

Hi all,
I went in for The Works service package this morning for an oil change and tire rotation. When I got back into the truck, the tire pressure screen was displayed with the tires reading 40 psi. The elevation here is around 4000 feet, the door label reads 30 psi, so I had them filled to 32 psi for the elevation difference. Am I way off or do they know something I/we don't?
Happy Thanksgiving!

I always let my tire/ wheel guy tell me what to run. The dealers are all over the place and can't even get the same pressure in all 4 tires. If I bring my truck in, I tell them don't mess with my tire pressure.

They should be at 30 psi. I do like mine at 32 psi cold but they're not the stock tires and I found this is perfect for me.

While you're at it make sure they filled the blinker fluid too. It should be max strength for that elevation. ?

Only the stock bridgestones should be 30psi.

Once you change tires, that door sticker is no longer relevant.

You know, I refilled my blinker lenses last year with 75W-90 gear oil and I've never had to refill them. I swear by it.
….but everyone knows that stuff causes premature filament wear.

Because I sold tires and have had some great conversations with engineers, about the MFG recommended versus the sidewall spec. I run the sidewall recommended tire pressure, my Dullers are set to 40psi summer and 38psi for winter
