check the thermostat in the car... its an easy part to swap out yourself... remove the big hose going to the motor from the radiator and it should be the piece that the hose fits over on the engine... double check me on that but ive changed a lot of them and thats usually the case...

Matt... I don't believe in tire rotation. I don't do it. I had a set of goodyear eagles that I got on my G35 that I never once rotated and they lasted 70k miles...

Right now I have never rotated the tires on my Tundra and they have 25k on them and still look new. I rotated the tires on my older GMC and it seemed no matter what tire I put on them they would be bald by 30k miles...

Maybe no correlation there, I understand that it may just be happenstance... different tires, or the GMC chewed them up for some reason... but Im gonna stick with what works for me...
