But, before I left, I noticed the fuel gauge was on empty! Bastards could have at least filled it up.



Just ordered MSD cap and rotor, NGK plugs, MSD ignition coil, Monroe shocks (front and rear). Already has a K&N filter and Taylor wires. I just need to do the fluid changes and Im ready for my trip to NE next week.

I realize I'm late to the party, but awesome truck! I love those things :thumbs_up: Hard to believe you pay so damn much for gas on the left coast... here in the midwest gas is only like $3.09

No kidding... I installed new struts on my daily last week and despite having a 500 ft-lb impact wrench and a bolt that was soaked with PB blaster for a few hours, I couldn't remove that bolt on the rear saddle joint holding the strut. I ended up shearing off the bolt and I had to drill it out and instead installed a new bolt/nut... dumb...

That silver PC looks great, too!

I just came back from NE a couple months ago and gas was dirt cheap, and better quality. I miss that.
