They talk about needing new piston rings and other engine component replacements between 50K and 100K miles. I hope it's not at common as they made it sound.
This is the point I was trying to make. Let me put it this way GM is the only manufacture I've worked for at a large dealer that had 3 designated heavy duty techs (meaning engine r&r and rebuild all day long), 8 designated drivability/elec techs (myself included), 1 designated trans/driveline tech. And there was enough work to keep us all busy in that field (heavy duty even backed up for 3-4 weeks at a time). You simply will not see this is in a Japanese shop as most work is all 90% service and brakes (boring).

I know ford is similar to GM setup as is Chrysler but I would not buy one of those either.
