[QUOTE="SlugSlinger, post: 3589976, member: 7248"] I’d ask the installer what their standard is. Sounds like they are up selling at a profit. I’d call the concrete supplier and ask the price difference between 3500 and 4000. I suspect it’s $5-$10 a yard at the most. You can do the same for the rebar at a supplier. You can get an idea if the upgrade is worth $500. You really don’t need 4000 psi or 1/2” rebar. I estimated my the psi weight of my 7,000 lbs 2500HD Duramax. At most it’s 145 psi. That’s about 2”x6” tread foot print. [/QUOTE]
