Nice. That's my favorite price.

Drove down to Indy yesterday, grabbing lunch and then I'll be on my way back home. I'll have surpassed 40,000 miles by then.

What part of town are you in?

 

 

 

I was at IUPUI right in downtown, stayed at a Holiday Inn Express across from Lucas Oil stadium. Just an overnight trip though, I'm back home now. If I'm back in town I'll let ya know.

Mike, if the boss(or wife) asks you today if you got a particular task completed, just look them dead in the eye and say "No, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night"...

 

Yeah, I know, but I'm tired and I entertain easily.

I've been doing the road warrior thing for almost six years now and the company's preferred hotel is Holiday Inn. I'm pretty sure I've used that joke up. :lol:

My family has too, sister graduated dental hygenist school, her husband graduated dental school from there.

 

The girlfriend was accepted for dental school there but ended up going to Detroit, liked the school's dental program a bit better.

I am embarrassed to say there is an IU doctorate degree next to my Purdue Master's degree :lol:. At least her undergrad is from Purdue.

The truck got dropped off for surgery, I hate the Altima I got for a rental

Ordered the Airaid MIT intake tube for the truck. Been meaning to for ages but never got to it. Of course now I order it when it barely is getting into the 30s outside. :lol: And a new air filter too- never changed that. :lol:

My engine bay is filthy. If we ever meet up when I'm in the Indy area I'm gonna be ashamed cause my truck is perpetually dirty. :lol:

I haven't. If I ever need a doctor or a lawyer I'm calling you. After all, you did...oh nevermind. :rolleyes:

 

 

I'm probably the last person in the world you should take medical or legal advice from. :lol: But since you asked- eat two cheeseburgers before bed and rob a gas station in the morning. :lol:

    • Folks, Have a great new 2026 WT  (std cab, 2.7/4WD) w/base 40/20/40 mech adj bench "fake buckets"  (with lower and upper center console) heavy vinyl seats.  Overall the seats are very comfortable and the vinyl is heavy and appears less likely to 'split out'. Am very tall (6'5")  + a bad back/osteporosis/former hyperparathyroidism so ease/range of movement is a bit restricted.  The truck rides a bit high and I use a nerf step bar w/my left foot to step in, then I put right foot/leg in, drag my butt in  & get seated.  Worked fine in my 2018 RAM quadCab. But I end up dragging my butt over the left raised sidecushsion area of vinyl seat, and due to texture there's fair amount of traction on slide inward.  (ArmorAll didn't improve.) If the seat were even ~1/2" - 3/4" lower it'd be helpful, but base seats just have the forward/backward underseat bail and the side lever for tilt which really doesn't affect seat height.   I really don't want to 'de-puff' the left side sidecushion forming the  fake 'bucket'. I know one company sells 'seat elevator blocks':  but is there a simple way of lowering the height of the driver seat instead?   Thanks Bill W San Jose  
    • I have a basic 2026 1500 WT  (2.7L/4WD reg cab shorttbed). Comfy, generally happy with electronics/radio - but is there a way I can add switches to steering wheel right-side position (curr. empty) so I can adjust volume, push phone button to voice dial, etc? Bill W San Jose  
    • The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.
    • So I purchased the Range unit for my 2026 and I am seeing different locations suggested for the ECM . Can anyone confirm wither under hood, left side or right side or behind the wheelwell?
    • Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that.
