My 14yr old neice has been with us for a week now. Taking her to Abilene this evening to meet her dad, is it 530 yet? Sleeps 15 hours a day, on the phone the rest and eats everything

I wonder if you saturated the pads with a little "Goo Gone" to soften the adhesive first if that would make them come off a bit better?

Made the trip in 3hrs 30 mins. Cruised up there at 68 got to Abilene, dropped off the niece and went to burger king, let the truck idle for about 20 minutes while i was eating and cruised back. Battled wind all the way there and back and still got almost 20mpg.

Pulled off the intercooler today to clean all the bugs off it and to see if i had any condensation in it. It was Bone dry, not a drop of moisture in it. Also noticed the IAT2 temps running about 10 degrees cooler with all the bugs and debris off it.

About to get a Trans exchange done within the next month or so. Then she will be good to go for a while

And you were giving me a this grief about the tail lights, and you've had some pretty expensive go fast goodies just collecting dust

I guess you're just holding out for a V8 swap so you can actually go fast
