Sometimes life sucks. You bought a truck you can't afford. I did that once with Land Cruiser I know the feeling.

Regulating gas prices will guarentee we all get little for a lot of money.

Deregulate; end all the special blends, and open Alaska and Florida oil fields and you will see the prices go down.

I'm with you. Regulation can't be the answer. The Free Market is awfully brutal sometimes, but if you give government more power, they'll take it - and then some. And they'll regulate it in such a way that high-level politicians make a ton of money and the Common Man gets screwed - again. Businessmen want money. Politicians want money AND power.

Making a living with your mangina can be tough. I decided against that route too.

Ummmmm...he has a REALLY BAD boost leak and lead in his sneakers. I'm getting 30-35 hwy...when not boosting . Your not seeing 22 unless you have MDS or your rolling down some BIG hills. I think most of you guys lie to yourself about getting mileage...the best hwy mileage I saw was stock and it was 17 on the FL turnpike going 75mph. After mods my mileage got worse no matter how I drove so I started driving like a madman all the time. Either way...I still have the parts...Anybody want some?

I should probably try another forum....

It was the Belltech 2/4...it cost about $650 I think...I wouldn't ever get another flip kit ever! Get lowering leafs and front springs. If you get a flip kit you have to get the axle perches welded really good. The people at Belltech are evil...they don't tell you that. You can't go WOT, spin, or do burnouts with a flip kit. I had to find it out the hard way. All in all the drop went smooth...but see if you can 5 or 6 inch lowering leafs....cause your just gonna want it lower! I know I did once I got it done.
