on interstate 70-80 or so, so far this week. I hear ya on the fluctuation. I hate it but i def know what ya mean. the trucks got a fresh tune up before i purchased and fresh fluids. I will still have to freshen the oil soon, so i can ensure / get it on a good change cycle.

will keep your adviceon teh higher octane for sure. I dont like spending the bux on the higher octaines.

If only I could keep my foot out of it, I'd have so much better MPG. I blame it on the loud exhaust, but at least it puts a smile on my face.

I have the Deltaflow 50 Series and it is perfect. Loud and rumbly when I step on it, nice coasting tone but the best part is when I shift to 5th (od) it quiets right down for a nice hwy experience.

I just had to replace muffler, the Blowmaster rotted out out as usual. Replaced it with a 37 dollar thrush turbo. Yes, quieter than the rust master 50 series I had on it, but I like it(the sound). I'm guessing for 37 bucks though, it wont make the winter here.

probably should try to price a muffler from the local parts store. see if theres a factory replacement thats quieter. I have access to a welder and of course shop but id rather not have to do it unless it has no other option. lol.

Check that : Advance sells a Flowtech Afterburner muffler for 30.00. Which i gues sis ok, but not listed as factory replacement. Quiet would be better... and i dont know how loud that one is.

been a bit since i updated.

So far ram is doing good. Rain all last night, and off and on today.. no moisture in the floorboard.

looks like i may have gotten it covered. its raining again tonight, so we'll see.


Still cannot figure out the reverse lamp issue.

The Air Bag lamp.. miraculousely fixed itself. no issues at all with it now. Go fish.

Got quote for the window tint. 90.00 for all the windows at 20% dark. so thats good too.. just gotta save up money.

Nice, are you going to go as dark as legaly possible? a little privacy is always nice while driving around. Been following your thread, keep up the nice work.

thanks. actually going darker than legal. dont really care for the lightness of legal. 20 % is what ive found to be just the right darkness to me.

I appreciate it man. mines no where as pristine as yours, but shes fun and so far dependable. been enjoying her alot!
