Looking for service in NY

I picked up my truck in AZ and drove it to NY towing an empty 6x10 Haulmark . The mileage wasn't what I'd hoped for (11.1-13.4) but I wasn't going slow either.
Truck has 3800 miles on it now and I need a recommendation for a good service Dept. to get my first service. At least an oil change without cross threading the drain plug . The truck's gonna live in Phoenix but spend Grand Kid time on LI.
I'm in Syosset on LI and got service for my 98.5 at Herbee years ago.
Any thoughts on where to take it now and what to expect them to do to it?

21 Views and no replies? Come on, there has to be at least one Dodge dealer on LI that we trust.


LOL

Look in the chapters section of the site, and contact the Long Island chapter president. IMO he would be your best bet.
Hope this helps,

I have a shop in Smithtown that I use. I have never used them for Diesel service, But I do take all my work vans there, my diesel goes in there for inspections, tires, anything I need specialized equipment for. I have been using them for about 12 years now. As for diesel service, if you are traveling through Wisconsin, there is a shop there that I have used, huckstorf,hdiesel.com, excellent. I can not say enough good stuff about those guys. PM me I can give you more details.

Thanks, BROMANO. I'm back in AZ. now and I had the oil changed at LEE Dodge When I was in NY. Cost me $115 but they did it while I waited. Truck was new and I hadn't set it up yet. It now has the drain plug with tube that Geno's sells so I can change it in my sisters driveway.
