Want to Thank Ed at FICMrepair.com

Poor guy had to put up with me on the phone this morning....

I was the recipient of a new FICM/Atlas 40 in a drawing at SuperDuty Service a few weeks ago. Ed actually took my call today and we discussed many things and he even sold me on a new alternator, it should arrive in a few weeks. My old FICM is on the way to Iowa for a health checkup and the Economy tune. I cannot say enough and want to Thank Ed for everything, even fielding answers to the 1001 questions I asked. Ed can now rest.....

It was a good conversation with you this morning, John! We're all in this together!!

That alternator will ensure many years of uneventful service for you, I'm sure!!

I'll piggy back on to John's "Thank You to Ed" with my own thanks for the BatteryMinder!



Going to take it with me to Colorado in July to try to revive the battery in my Jeep - which sits for 11 months between my visits.

With an incredibly heavy heart, the status is...I am going with a new guy. I just can't continue debating with my existing designer who seems to think that the site is plenty fast.

The only conversation/decision now is whether to start completely over or have the existing code reviewed to see if it can be salvaged. Big bummer for sure.

Another "Thanks" to Ed. Got my battery minder in a couple days ago. Haven't hooked it to the truck yet but it's been on the motorcycle battery since the night it came in. Quick shipping even on a small item. Thanks man!

Hah! The current site works as an information supplier, sure, but we desperately need the shopping cart. The new site takes over 30 seconds to load. I don't know of many that are going to wait that long for a site to pop up...

Aside from new product updates, I visited your site last night, printed the info needed and this morning found a hole in my pocket... it does work. A shopping cart and PayPal would be excellent to speed shop.

I am sure you will have something going soon.

Too funny, John.

Yep. Paypal, full credit card processing, images of what you're getting (what a concept, heh?)...it's all coming, but I am over promising a date certain. Live and learn...

Dumb question for sure, but I have to ask...

Have you tried loading your new site on different computers and smart phones?

Delay could be from the server side!. I work for a content delivery network provider that improves download performance for mostly games, apps, movies, etc. But some hosting companies have their own bandwidth limitations.. and low traffic sites get low priority..

The content has been loaded onto three different servers from two different ISP's. It of course still could be a server issue, but the content was even loaded up onto one of the developer's production servers to no avail.
