bear with me on this. so with the custom tune I don't need a handheld or anything. just pull the pcm and send it in?

That's correct. Obviously you should make arrangements ahead of time if you go this route so that you are without the truck for as short a time as possible. You could avoid the necessity of a crank relearn if you go this route.

Or you could try to find a local tuning session. Blackbear was just in Kansas City last weekend, I believe. He's been traveling around a lot. Take a look on Performancetrucks.net as that's where I saw the threads posted.

Heard from FH a few hours ago. He should be in Canton by now visiting the Pro Football Hall of Fame. I got this in an email from him
"Just gassed up East of Richmond, 17.536 MPG!"

I don't know what his driving habits were so far, but that beats what the window sticker on these trucks advertise  :thumbup:

WHERE IT REALLY IS ABOUT THE FRIENDS AND AVY'S, AND NOT THE ALMIGHTY ADVERTISING DOLLAR!

Here's a link to a Predator on PT.net:

If you decide you want it you should jump on it since they don't normally last very long. He wants $225 shipped for it and I'd hate to offer him $200.

My driving habits were 70mph, stayed pretty steady at that, didn't go much above.

I'm out of town this weekend and on a business trip next Monday & Tuesday. Then we leave for vacation on Friday and won't be back until July 3rd or 4th. We'll have to look at sometime after that. I'll give you a call if I have some free time before then, unless you want to come help repair a drain tile tonight!  :whistle:

Sounds like you've got a bunch going on!!  Where are you vacationing to, do I smell sun tan lotion and the beach? 

Damn, did I miss the drain tile repair?   banghead1  We can get together when you get back from your vacation.  Have a safe trip and a great time!!!
