HOLY COW!!! What took me so long?!?!?!
I took my 2013 6.7L Powerstroke King Ranch 4X4 in to Cody at Bare Knuckles today. Cody had personally responded to well over 50 (probably closer to 100?) text messages I had sent asking questions about my truck and what was needed, not needed, etc. over the past week or two.
We agreed on intake, new exhaust, tune and 1.5 inch leveling kit on front.
I arrived at 8am and Cody was waiting for me with a bay already picked out. He even texted me at 745 to ask what time to expect me? First thing he did was measure my front vs back end and told me he didn't think I needed leveling kit as my truck only had 1/2 inch difference between front and rear. WHAT!?!? A mechanic that has ordered a part ahead of time and then tells you it isn't needed??? Saved a couple of hundred $ before I had finished my coffee. Thank you Cody!
They completed the exhaust mod, cold air intake and tune and I was on my way in less than 3 hours. Cody graciously offered me a place to set up and work while I waited too!
I drove over 80 miles (from well north of McKinney) to come see Cody and I am so glad that I did. These guys not only know their stuff, but they are HONEST and they understand customer service too!! Cody knew I was driving a long way and didn't really want to drop my truck off only to have to make the drive again later in the day or tomorrow. He went out of his was to have everything ordered, lined up and ready to go AND accommodate my need to set up my laptop for work.
OH, and......the truck is a BEAST after the mods and tune!!! My MPG went UP over 4.5 mpg on the drive home vs the drive there....and it was a LOT more fun to drive!! 4.5 MPG!!! That is a savings of 250 gallons of fuel for every 20,000 miles driven. Almost $750 in just fuel in one year!!! WHO KNEW these trucks were hiding so much power and performance?!!?! I have 130K miles on this truck, have owned it for 5 years and I fell in love with it all over again today thanks to Cody and Bare Knuckles!! These guys are phenomenal!!! If you are just thinking about having work done on your diesel....CALL CODY first!!! Let him help you decide what is best for your truck and for you!! Cody could have EASILY sold me on a bunch of performance stuff that I don't need, but he didn't. He listened to what I wanted, asked about my driving habits and style and built a PERFECT package tailor fit to my wants and needs!!!
THANK YOU BARE KNUCKLES and THANK YOU CODY!!!
I WILL BE BACK!!!!! read more
