I may be biased, but, the Green Gem is striking. It's almost black on overcast days, with the Green standing out when the sun hits it.

(The R is just a snubber and is pretty much negligible) and with the added capacitance, there's about a second of dropout delay - so after turning off the lights, the contact is held in for about a second before it finally drops.

The money I saved is going into my house for now, I know I'll get 'new truck fever' in the spring..........

Good morning......

Monday morning we are going to a 3rd Ford Dealer (Fairfield MT) to see what there best deal is. After that visit we are expecting to Order the new rig Tuesday.
I like the KR leather and two tone paint.
I like the platinum heated wheel.

I like the Green Gem....can't do that with the Platinum.

We'll know for sure Monday afternoon.
