Congrats on your continued success and keep up the good work!
One the biggest questions we get is why we started DP. Well when we look back in our old age the answer will be simple. All the great people we have met and the lessons we have learned will give us great stories to tell our grandchildren.

Our customers rock!!!! Many of our customers from early on have become some of our closest friends. Without their encouragement we wouldn't be here today. Like the encouragement we get from many of our customers today and over the past 5 years, it helps to know that we are making a difference in other peoples lives.

Who ever coined the phrase "permagrin club" I bid you a big Thanks!!!

Diane

Hey, Bullsix, Welcome back to FTE.

I know what Travis was meaning about new users and first post. I think if you would have introduced yourself at the first, there would not have been the misunderstanding. Hope you stay around and help us with the information you have about our trucks. What do you drive?

OK you got me. Let me come back to all with my hat in my hand. Maybe I should have given a little history about myself and then Up There would not have had the NewB itis that many have when a new "know it all" comes on board. I admit I became a little defensive and that in itself is not what this whole PSD thing is not about. It is about enjoying and talking about our beloved PSD's. With that said, I have to agree. Maybe I should have come out of the gate with a less defensive attitude.
OK I will start over and be a little less defensive and a little more receptive to
the experiences and knowledge of others....OK Hows that????

Thanks and have a great weekend.

I like your products. Only thing is the wife is not a fan because she blames you two for my PMS.

Without you, I doubt I would have done all the repairs on the truck. I had to repair the exhaust system, repair the turbo, repair the trans, repair the oil system and will soon repair the injectors. She calls it modification. I call it repair.

I don't use that many tunes but I prefer the push button switch to the old fashioned rotary dial.

I have said this to both Diane and Jody and mentioned it on here before. The money I originally spent on my DP tuner is the BEST $426 I EVER spent. I have spent a lot of money in my life some on less frivolous things some on more frivolous things, none of it has made me as happy for over a year now, than that original purchase. And the new tunes that I got at smokin' still are making me smile. It's that simple.

I know that at some point I have to take my injectors out and have them "repaired". Maybe then I can have DP-Tuner tune my PCM for the injectors since they will be single shots. Right now, it is hard to have them add a smoke tune because I will be without my chip for a couple of days at least and the drive will suddenly seem so long.
