My newest most expensive mod to my 7.3

The gt38r whistle stops baby crying. Wife doesn't like the turbo noise and hates riding it my truck.

so it kills 2 birds with one stone.

I did this mod last weekend. No longer have the wife to complain, the 14 year younger model really likes the whistle, then again she drives an R/T Charger and wants a Hellcat so I think I did alright in that "mod". My daughter turns 18 in 2 weeks and is out driving my truck for the first time with the new turbo as I type this, so I eagerly await her permagrin when she gets back.

"Two birds with one stone", lol! Congrats on the mod!

In case you did not get enough baby advice recently; sleep when the baby sleeps, and take turns.

You had an invisible baby? How cool is that?

Then again, that's probably so good.


Oh, and congrats on the turbo thing too.

Congrats on the new little one!! I used to back my truck outside and let my son nap in it. It was his favorite place to nap. I guess the dull roar was very soothing. As a matter of fact it is still his favorite vehicle to ride in!
Enjoy the sleepless nights!

Right on, congrats on the kid. My brother is about to have one of their own and I know their going to pawn him/her off to me and we will see if my new 38R works for that. My goal is to get the kid all sugared up and give the kid back. Lol.

Get rid of it before you get attached. That's all I got to say.
