It's the dealerships that should really band together and decide that they won't get their panties in a bunch over a CATCH-CAN!

I read about a lot of people, myself included, who have no problem buying a GM vehicle and then not taking it to the dealer for service. I did not care about two years' free oil changes. I let my mechanic do that because the $100 for Mobil1 was not a big sacrifice, compared to what the mechanics at the dealership would do: only put in 5 qts of oil, drive my car into a wall, joy ride, or take pictures of the catch-can and void my warranty.

It would serve dealerships well to be "minor mod friendly": a catch-can will not hurt your engine, a cold air intake will not hurt your engine, an aftermarket exhaust will not hurt your engine, a carbon-fiber fuse box lid will not hurt your engine, and an LS3 conversion done by the dealership should not void a warranty.

GM gets the $$$$ for my car, but the dealerships won't get the $$$$ for regular service.
