Did it roll over to zero? Or is it stuck on 9999.9 forever?

492,091 / 10,000 = 49.2 MPH average. You ain't letting no grass grow are ya?

Kinda sux that its no longer counting. I guess I could see if ids can reset it. I would like to keep a count on it.

Dont get me wrong, I'm constantly turning off everything and listening attentively (with the wife looking at me like "here we go again") cause I think I'm hearing a new noise. That actually happened again this morning. I'm kinda freaked out and keep an ear on it listening for the lifter bearings. Blackstone is saved in my phone. I'm gonna run her til she won't go anymore tho.

I do fairly well on tires. I drive slow and stay on the pavement. I average 90-100k on rears and 130-170k on the fronts. never had an alignment, never rotate. I just burn em til their gone. Of course, if and when I ever get some wear that indicates a problem, then I will address the alignment. I dont think my truck is much different than any of yours. I prob have the same amount of cold starts (maybe a little less). I think most of the wear comes from that. I have been known to only shut the truck off when its time to change the oil tho (when Im working that is). What sux is, I think im hearing my infamous chirp again. some of you might remember the thread I posted about it. Im gonna bump it with a video maybe tomorrow. I might be calling blackstone sooner than later. I have been pointed into the direction of the lifter needle bearings. bad freaking deal.
