Thanks Steve, I feel pretty good about the purchase so far. I'm also sad about my old pickup, I feel like I'm abandoning it, LOL (like it has a brain!)
Or feelings

I'm working on a 6.7 Cummins right now. Doing DPF deletes and EGR deletes is strangely satisfying. Lol

Lol. This isn't my job. It's my hobby and sometimes side work. My job is for an electric utility disconnecting and reconnecting electric meters. That's a fun job when your cutting someone's electricity when they haven't paid their bill. Lol

Alex, be careful broseph. Hopefully your not traveling alone. I didn't see anything about that since I haven't read the past few pages yet. Hope that CC checks out in person and you get it home safely!

Pretty much.. believe it or not, it's not out of the ordinary for us to get guns and other weapons pulled on us.. people get crazy when your cutting the electricity that's powering the heat lamps over their pot plants. Lmfao

Back to some off topic here. I ran over one of my dad's dogs today. He has 2, and of course it was the one that I like. I thankfully was driving my little festiva. That dog always chases cars, maybe it will change its mind about it now. I think it is ok, dad is taking it to the vet now. I just got back from getting stitched up.

As soon as I ran over this dog, with the front and rear tires, I stopped and ran over to see if it was alive. She was up, and when I got to her, she bit my right hand and LOCKED her jaw on it. I had to pry her mouth open to get my hand out. Hence, the stitches. Damn dog.

I put the T500 and beans chip in the SD I've been toying with this morning. Wow did that truck wake up! All I have left to do is put the gauges in, which I was gonna do tomorrow, but not now. Maybe next weekend.

Alright, don't say I didn't warn you when your up-pipes and turbo go missing...

Good luck with your beans tunes.

The t-500 is worth it though.


I hate dogs that chase cars.
HATE them.

I've seen dogs loose legs from chasing cars and still proceed to chase cars.
