I'm averaging about 14mpg currently compared to last year, even on no power setting I found the BD dpf friendly tuner uses a bit more fuel. Once I get a catch can in place on the ccv, and methanol in place, I'll just run factory tuning. For some reason after re-installing emissions, my top speed reset itself to approx. 96-97mph, which is lots for passing. IMO, it pulled better with a load stock too. I like the speed limiter removal and being able to force a regen, but IMO it was better stock. Leaving the intake and exhaust though.

Side note, winter tires back on, Toyo M920A's, 14ply, 87mph rated. . Tread is still 100% of new depth after one season, even the nubs from the factory moulding were still on them, decided to add some siping to the inner lugs. They made very nice traction, thought I'd try for a bit more. They will wear faster now but I can live with that. Don't need tires lasting 5-7 years. I get itchy and need to replace every 3 years anyway. One pleasant thing I did notice so far, they didn't need to be re balanced from last year.

Hope that was most of the damage to your property. Trucks can be replaced. Glad everyone is safe.

looks like the truck saved your house, far more important. Still hurts a bunch though.

Well its not all bad. First you can now carry some really long stuff without having to put the tailgate down and second, I am sure that will polish out without too much trouble, you may need to start with a fairly course rubbing compound.
