My son has a 2018 Z71 Silverado company truck that gets ran pretty hard. Not GM's fault but he had 3 flats in 3 months and a co-worker with the same truck had 2 flats in 2 months. But that is to get an idea of how hard they run them (oil and gas pipelines). He is a Safety Manager so he doesn't use his for heavy work but the truck has held up pretty well with about 18,000 miles on it now. The front valance got ripped off a few weeks after he got it due to low ground clearance but mechanically he hasn't had any issues. He is thinking of buying his own 3/4 ton diesel (likely a Ram). The company will pay him $1600/month if he uses his own. He is the only one on his team that uses a company owned truck. I have a 2013 Ram with a Hemi and have no complaints on it either. Now I will say I will NEVER buy another Ford again. Had 4 and 2 had major issues and also had a brand new Windstar. Of those 5 Fords 3 had new motors installed (one Ford headquarters had an attitude with me and told me too bad). These were 1991's to 1996's but with the attitude they gave me and the way they talked to me I'm done with them.

Still no money yet. They call it an ACH transfer

Yeah, wondered where the 26 year grudge with Ford mattered.

Handy - hope the funds come soon.

An ACH is similar to a wire transfer only it uses a batch- process. Transactions received by the bank during the day are stored and processed later in batches and do not become available to a beneficiary until the next day. ACH transfers are less expensive than wire transfers.

Handymans342

I was told an ACH can take 3 to 5 days

Ian

Which is stupid considering the interconnections and big data exchanges today.

Yep, you may see it in your account as pending right away but it takes several business days to really be there. No title transfer until it’s there!

No way I helped my son buy a house and I gave him cash and OMG it was like I committed murder. We almost lost the house over a $20 check that he made a deposit along with the cash I gave him. Everything nowa days is messed up.......

Lower the lift and let it drift home to the new owners.

Property value should go up without a stinky diesel in the backyard. All kidding aside, congrats on the sale and wish you luck on your new journey. I hope that RV can bring you as much happiness as the boat did at one time. 

Thanks but the boat NEVER brought me any happiness. The RV, always.
