lope idle?

I was wondering if there was a way to give my truck a lope idle?

Like if I go threw a drive threw and dont want to shut it off....or talking to someone outside the truck..?

Something I could hook up to my upfitter switches?

Thanks

That is something that I will not understand, but to each their own.

Don't say that. I prefer to live in denial.

Ok, I'll bite. Why would you want to do that to your truck? Maybe the camera is magnifying the audio, but it sounds to me it would be just as hard to hear the drive-trough folks or someone outside the truck. And any time I've heard a PSD doing that, there was a couple of guys under the hood trying to figure out why (something was wrong with it). Thus, that can't be good for it...but what do I know?

I can't imagine that it would be good for the longevity of the injectors.

Maxium is right that it is a flash program if you that is what you are looking for. I wouldn't run it all the time, but that's just me (well I wouldn't run it at all, but it's your truck).

That was my line of thinking...that "hit & miss" has got to be rough on the injectors and fuel system (surging pressures). But I'm far from a PSD guru.

Maxium4X4, your safe as long as he doesn't charge up the "hover-round" scooter.

Sounds cool but thats about the only advantage of it. I dont see how it would make the truck any quieter for drive-thru's. I've never been asked to shut mine off anyway, maybe I just talk really loud

It will be easy to spot Tex coming, those Longhorns on a walker are a dead giveaway.
