I did, I just like screwing with ya.

Yeah, if your truck is pinging, you should try a higher octane of gas, and if that doesnt stop the pinging, get a colder set of plugs. I run stock plugs and use BP or Shell 93 octane with stock heat range plugs and it still pings. But my plenum is leaking badly and is causing it to ping.

^ Nice look. I did nothing today but wait for the truck to come back from the tranny shop. Replaced transmission mount, fixed 4x4 and changed all fluids.

EDIT: At 1:55pm est The shop called and my truck is DONE!!! Thank god I missed her so much. According to him my yolks don't click when in 4x4??? SO that's new.

well yesterday, i picked up a new computer for the truck for $75. called LKQ the day before, and they had said there was not 1 in the entire southest US availible to them. i guess the 368AE 2000 model year pcm was a 1 year deal. i have since returned the pcm in the truck back to stock settings, now im just waiting for the truck to die on me again, to plug the new pcm in to see if its the pcm. also picked up a sticker "Yeah, Its got a Hemi." from the local dodge dealer for $0.99
