New car with warranty I'll play suck it up and deal with the extra cost of a shop with oil changes that offer free tire rotations. Some shop do it $20. Let's say oil change is $50 at current market price. 36k warranty means about 5 oil change. So $250.
Option 2) Sam and I think Walmart (ones with a auto shop) Offer a lifetime tire rotation plan for $12 each tires. So $48 get you the rotations. Both I advise to get through door like 7/8 AM. First in line. PS Walmart is best for oil changes, because they don't do anything else. They don't need damage your of BS on what things you MUST do or you might die.
Option 3. Once tires needs to be replaced. Buy from Costco, Sam, BJ. They will offer free tire rotations etc. Pep boy etc charge you EXTRA for this services.
Pretty easy to begin with. I don't know how to make something like that easier other than learning to use a torque wrench, don't have to recheck some one else's work.Option 4, Do the work yourself.

I tried to decode decipher figure out what you're trying to say here, care to help me out?
I would not use Walmart for ongoing service. They are a nightmare to deal with. I bought tires from them, but that’s a one time thing. I do rotations myself. Take it to a dealer if you have too, or a local tire shop.New car with warranty I'll play suck it up and deal with the extra cost of a shop with oil changes that offer free tire rotations.

I have a digital torque adapter that I picked up NIB at a good price on ebay. It's the "Bikemaster" brand and is identical to some others (including the "Powerbuilt 940962 on Amazon), some of which differ cosmetically. It covers 27.5-147.5 FT-Lbs. It's identical to the early version (no longer sold) of the Harbor Freight Quinn. Basically it's just a 3" extension with 1 or 2 strain gages bonded to the sides of it and some circuitry in a case with buttons. I bought it to check my TW calibration not to use on the end of a breaker bar.That's the first time that I've seen one of these "digital torque adapters". I took a look at Amazon.
The prices are right up there with a halfway decent wrench. But I suppose these adapters may have their place. One of the problems I see is that with the size of these things you may not be able to get them into tight spots.
Jeez, I didn't think anybody used these anymore. I have 2 I bought in the late 70s, must have used them less than a dozen times.Torqued to ~100 ft-lbs . Since they get torqued in steps of roughly 40, 70 and 100, it's quicker and easier to use a beam type (with pointer) torque wrench than adjusting a clicker torque wrench. Thru the years they consistently loosen at~80 when torqued to 100. I don't even bother to recheck at 50-100 miles later except for new aluminum wheels. They never come loose. A beam type torque wrench with short extension and appropriate socket has lived in the trunk of my vehicles since the 1970's. I guess a person just goes with what works for them.
Yea well, sometimes simpler is quicker and it's been mainly reserved for lugs. And that style served well for 25 years until my first clicker many years ago. It's still in my suv and also handy to check loosening torque if I have the tires rotated someplace like for a free rotation and balance check. You know, you request 100 ft-lbs and they torque to 200. In instances like this my cordless impact has been a back saver before me retorquing the lugs.Jeez, I didn't think anybody used these anymore.
