i like it, just dont get the visor. not just the one on your truck, but a visor in general.


maybe i am just lucky cause i can tint the top of my windshield very dark.

have you noticed any MPG diff? seems that the airflow is way interupted... but of all the truck sizes, they look best on a true full size!!!

Thanks so some busy weeks at work i was able to pick up a K&N CAI and a superchips tuner...im extremely happy with them so far... Since this tuner doesnt have guages i plan on doing a triple guage cluster on the pillar..

Very nice so far. Get an edge insight CTS though instead of pillar gauges IMO. For 465 I got the CTS and egt probe and can do a lot more than the 400 that a triple pod and gauges run

well the reason i didnt get one of the those that stay on the dash is bc of theft purposes i know those ones are better but i like the fact that mine can unplug and go into the glove box ... i love the added power and better gas milage.. only reason im considering the triple pod is to be able to monitor the eft's ect..but we will see down the road.. last week thanks to hurricne Irene i worked 100 hours last week.. sucked at the time but thats going to pay for my plow which in turn is going to pay for my lift and rims come spring time.... i cant wait

This one works with the super chips and is only a monitor. Doesn't tune. I have an x3 with my tunes on it. But I liked this one for the 6.0 cuz it'll do ect and eot which are necessary for me. But where I have mine it semi hidden cuz I use a sun visor and cut a slit in it to slid around the mount but it's also easy enough to unplug and remove the device like I did this weekend when we went outta town and left the truck here
