Curious how many are out there and where they are? I found westers garage in Alberta. Anyone know of BC ones of better yet on vancouver Island?

I got mine from Wait4me and had it sent home to Alberta. Westers is the only one I know of from western Canada. I am on the island for school right now, and haven't heard of any nearby. Wait4me was great and I didn't have any troubles with the border or anything so with the price being so much less than Westers I went ahead with Wait4me and got one for my brother and I. I would be surprised if you could anywhere cheaper than Wait4me anyways.

right on i emailed him but i might have to give him a ring instead. Did you just take your truck to a dealer to get this crankrelearn thing done? Which tune did u get?

I phoned, he answered on the third ring. I tried e-mail but never got a reply. I told him what I was looking for out of my truck ( a note with the pay pal payment) and he took care of the rest. I think all his tunes will run on any octane you will just get a drop in power and mileage with a lower octane fuel. I run 92 octane and I noticed a 2mpg increase on the first tank, not bad. The truck also runs a lot stronger, definitely more power.

I did the crank relearn myself (snap on scanner) it was easy. Anyplace with a half decent scanner should be able to do it.

Same process for me, although I did it all over email. It arrived when it was expected and everything no catches at all for me. My crank relearn was done at a local shop close to home, with a snap on scanner as well. any dealership should be able to do it as well as most scanners smaller shops will have. I think he included a small list of some that are capable of doing it in a sheet of paper when I got my PCM in the mail.

    • I’ve own several successful businesses. I’ve bought homes and lived in different states. I’d witness several generations buy homes and survive in different economic circumstances. You get awful sippy when people have different experiences than you do. You live a life. I’ve lived a life. It seems our experience has been different. You can point out generalized statistics. Some people learn how to thrive when the odds are against them. Living in different states does make a difference in a persons quality of life and economic outcomes and opportunities. That’s a fact Jack. It’s my truth, my life. Hard work and long hours the right environment made my families life easier. And yes moving to a different state increased the odds of that happening. Stats are generalized. People who thrive don’t make excuses. They beat the odds. Others get mad and point to those statistics. I guess that’s you. My post pointed out how you helped people beat the odds. Somehow your panties got in a wad. Go figure. 
    • Good question, I don't remember for sure but I believe it was the HD. I will check and get back to you.
    • Point of the post sir was that while both wages and cost are rising EVERYWHERE; the cost is rising faster EVERYWHERE than the ability to buy EVERYWHERE. We're not going down the location rabbit hole. I'm aware of what economic migration is. I've lived in four states including Texas.   It's what "Purchasing Power" means.   I'm not telling you what I think. I'm telling what the government, your government, data shows.   It wasn't an argument. It wasn't a suggestion. It was a statement of FACT. You are absolutely entitled to your own opinion. Your not entitled to your own facts. If you and I were, they wouldn't be facts.    fact /făkt/   noun Knowledge or information based on real occurrences. "an account based on fact; a blur of fact and fancy." Something demonstrated to exist or known to have existed. "Genetic engineering is now a fact.

    • Probably a one and done post, but do you have a CEL on the dash? Was having issues with my transmission, fortunately only a week, and it turned out to be the transmission harness. Valve body was in good shape, so new harness with all the sensors attached, new fluid, and filter. Seems to have worked so far?
    • Two interesting tidbits of information which are NOT related were just released.   One, regarding the possible thrust bearing issues / engine failures with the 3.0. Demonworks just did a segment in which they believe they may have found "a" or "the" cause of thrust bearing failures: A missing thrust bearing. If the engine doesn't have all its thrust bearings from the factory, the missing bearing can cause extra play which ends up destroying a nearby thrust bearing which then sends metal through the engine.       Of other importance, Lake Speed Jr released some interest information regarding oil weight selection for the 3.0. Comparisons of:   AcDelco 0w20 Dexos D Mobil 1 ESP x2 0w20 Dexos D Mobil 1 ESP x2 0w30 Mobil 1 ESP x4 0w40. Mobil Delvac 5w40   Spoiler alert: The Mobils are PAO Ester -base and the ACDelco is a Group III base. Mobil shows lower wear in their tests for similar weights. Additive packages between 20-30-40 weight ESP's appear to be the same, but only 0w20 is Dexos D licensed. Wear is even more reduced with 30 and 40 weight ESP although all perform very well and resist shear and provide very similar viscosities within temperature operating ranges in the 3.0.   There are even more surprises, so just go watch it.
