Exclamation Crazy Stuff

I dunno, the speedo isn't off does that really matter?

Well, except for the fact that a while back the frieken thing freaked out on me and started jumping up and down like I would be slowing down to like ten miles per hour and it would like frieken jump to thirty, but it stopped doing that lol.

Oh yeah and one time I had my cruise control on and it like wouldn't turn off, so I like slammed my foot on the gas pedal and then pressed on the break a little and it just came loose but since then it hasn't worked.

Crazy stuff aye?

I think that the Variable Speed Sensor broke or is broken.

How hard is that to fix?

Okay, because every once in a while my ABS light comes on inside the cab, but then it goes off after a couple min. or if I pull over and turn it off and back on.

Yeah, the CAL number is 8.09 and is supposed to be 8.25 is that enough to make a big difference?
