I do not spout off false things about RP. If I have made an error about RP or any other brand I always owned up to it. I don't recall the thread you are talking about so I can't say if this is just another of your wild and unfounded attacks on me or true? If I posted something wrong about RP it was not intentional and if shown I was wrong, or I discovered it myself, I would have admitted/corrected it. So what, do you really believe you have never posted something that was false? I am not perfect and don't claim to be. You berating me and saying I am wrong is not showing me or anyone else I actually am wrong though. Links to recycled Amsoil marketing materials are not independent sources with unbiased results, showing what I said it wrong.
You won't "tolerate" me posting something you THINK is incorrect? Wow, since when did you buy HTC? Who appointed you god and protector of the oil forum? Yes, I agreed to stay out of the wars and to ignore you( and I have done so unless provoked ). You agreed to the same thing however yet you did not honor that pledge. You have a well established history of antagonism and especially towards me. As usual you always try and make it out like I started it as well which CLEARLY I did not do. The posting timeline in this thread documents who started what.
I answered the OP's question as unbiased as I could. I did not push RP on him nor try and talk him out of Amsoil or any brand. I simply gave him a list of oils from the brands he was looking at that meet the requirements of his warranty as set forth in his owner's manual( the info I posted was gathered from the 2012 Ram manual ). There was no attack on/comment to you personally nor anything negative about Amsoil. Not in my 1st post to the OP nor my 1st post to you in response to your post to me. Things got nasty starting with your 2nd post to me. Just a factual timeline sir. As always you have twisted things and taken every opportunity you can to go after me.
Not everyone saying a voided warranty repair by the dealer is BS is actually correct either so your point is not a valid one. There are lots of valid denials of repairs due to owner neglect, modifications, and down right stupidity on the part of the vehicle owner yet they still say the dealer is wrong. The fact remains I have actual hands on experience working dealer service and have seen what happens. My hands on experience lends a lot of credibility to my statements even if you try and dismiss it.
Based on that real world experience I try and give a compromise solution to make the owner happy and keep them warranty safe. I try and point out ways people can still do what they want and avoid any warranty hassle. Such as use Amsoil XL or OE, in the correct weight, and change it within the max allowed for time frame the car mfg's allows for if Amsoil is the brand you want to use. Why that offends you is beyond me? Sadly many actually believe they can do anything they want because they read it on the internet( must be true ). I feel bad for those people if God forbid something major happens. They then get hit with the reality of warranty and have to fight to get the repair covered. I don't want anyone to go through that so I point out what they need to do to avoid it and still do the things to their vehicle they want to. It can take weeks and months at the dealer level, or as long as a year+ in court, to fight a warranty denial and the whole time the car sits unfixed unless the owner pays out of pocket for it. Just not worth it with drivetrain component repairs running thousands and thousands of dollars these days.
Bottom line here is this is NOT your own personal web site nor forum. You do not have the right to decide who can post and what they can post. You do not have the right to attack those you disagree with. You do not scare me, you do not impress me with some vast amount of knowledge, and you will NOT run me out of here no matter how hard you try. I am not leaving so deal with it. Things will be as unpleasant and as hostile here as YOU make them. I don't come to HTC much these days after selling the truck but when I do though this is one of the forums I will visit. I will never be the 1st one to start it up with you but I will NOT let you personally attack me on these forums. I tried to work this out with you via PM to no avail. When Mr. Hemi finally stepped in I agreed, as you did, to stop posting to each other. YOU broke the pledge not me as you imply. I did not post to you until you posted to me. FACT!
When you stop( or are finally stopped ), it stops right there because I do not address posts to you or respond directly to things you post unless it is about me or to me. Again, FACT! If everything you said to me was not said TO ME, just said in a normal post or to someone else, I would not respond at all. The fact you direct it at me along with tons of insults means I will. Don't quote me, insult me, or challenge what I say every time I say something if you wish to avoid a dispute. I will not, and did not, address you until you started it up yet again. If you continue on I will defend myself until one of us is made to stop by the Mod's. Bottom line is you are the aggressor and I will NOT let you run me off or silence me.
