ok, another thing, when i'm in any gear besides (P) or (N) and I hold the brakes while the vehicle is stopped, the lights will dim, and the battery voltage will drop on my gauge, it only happens when i'm stopped, if i'm applying the breaks and slowing down it doesnt do it, but when i'm at a dead stop with the breaks on, its like the engine revs down a little and the voltage goes down, you can also see the in cab lights get dimmer, and the headlights if they are on a building or somthing. i'm not sure if its connected, or even if i should worry about it....

i'm just going to get the security torx bit (the one with the hole in the middle), that way it wont look like someone was stabbing around with a screwdriver, not that it matters anyway, i'd just rather do things like that.

yeah, i guess it is better to do things the right way, but sometimes its alright to improvise. Why dont they put regular screws on there anyways? Is someone going to steal your maf?

yeah no kidding, but thats wierd that you say that, cause i'm serious to god, last night i had this really wierd dream, i was in a store of some kind, it was like a clothing store, suits and ties, etc, and i look out the window and i see someone in this totally junkyard style geo metro, the car was green, but the doors were flat red, and so was the trunk. The guy went over to my truck and poped the hood of and started stealing my intake, so i started running twards the exit doors to stop him, when i got there i couldnt get them open cause they were locked, and i remember yelling, "open the doors, that guys stealing my Intake!!!" to some clerk behind a counter, but she just slowly walked over, like she wanted that guy to get away, so i just watched the guy in the metro pop his hood, and install the intake right there!!! the guy put it on, and drove off with it in a matter of what seemed to be 1/2 a second, then i woke up. Weird eh? I had the craziest weekend though, so it was almost normal. Maybe if i bolted it on using security torx bolts the guy wouldnt have stole it....Lol, I am so crazy, man

I guess ford trucks really are better, we even think about them in our sleep.
