BTW, don't wreck a vehicle any time soon. You'll be waiting on parts for 3-4 months.

Try Vinnie's or Moberly's in the Industriplex. Both are very knowledgeable.

I had to use my government purchasing connection to get a drive train for my f150. As far as BMW goes, anything German will be an absolute pain for parts now and in the future.

Confirmed. A Tesla pulled in front of my two fiddy, resulting in $20k in damage to my truck. The first time I got it back was about 10 weeks later. Yet, the engine kept throwing diesel codes, and I didn't fully regain possession until about four months in.

Screw dealers. They only get recall work from me. I had one of the biggest Ford dealers in Houston tell me that the entire back glass needed to be replaced to fix my beer can window, yet all it really needed was body tape to stick it back up there.

Dealers (at least Ford) also seem to refuse parts until you *drop off* your vehicle. I'd offered to pay for the part in advance just to get them to have it in stock before dropping it off, and they refused. WTF.
