DFW area of Texas friendly dealerships

Anyone know of a good dealership in the dfw area that is mod friendly? I have read many times of other people having mod friendly dealerships. I bought my truck from Lithia dodge and their cummins techs suck anyways. They only have 2 and its hard to get stuff taken care of. Anyone recommend a good service dealership in general?

I've had good luck with Manuel Dodge in Richardson off of 75. DON'T take it to Preston dodge off 635, they are terrible....

Manuel was good.
Rockwall dodge so so. Last I checked they didn't have a diesel tech.
Dallas Dodge (I635 Garland/Dallas) Not good. They will flag your truck.

That's the only 3 dealerships I have taken my modded truck to.

Rockwall replaced my VP44. I told the Diesel tech at the time about my issue and he knew that it wasn't the computer box rather the pump itself was faulty.

Manuel guys have been pretty cool about working on the truck but no major work done by them.

Dallas Dodge. Hmm I wouldn't take my truck there except to get a light bulb replaced and you know I can do that so why bother with them. They had my truck 2 weeks couldn't figure out the problem. I finally solved the issue myself.

I had a similar situation with them. I had some electrical problems that had come up. They had my truck 4 days and couldn't find a problem. They blamed my aftermarket stereo (that had been in since day 1 and the truck was now 2 years old). They wanted $300 diagnostic fee up front to dig through my wiring to find the problem. I said no. Called Huffines in Plano and talked to their electrical guru. He know what the problem was without even seeing the truck. Bad instrument cluster. they replaced it and no more problems. He's also the diesel tech there.
