I need a grille guard like my old 2000 had.

 

Or a raging temper like mine when it comes to idiots and my vehicles. Meeting or not, I'd of found time to get even. And by even, I mean do something to satisfy my temper. :lol:

A girl at school last year backed her daddy's new f150 into my truck... Since it was on the back bumper I just glared at her and left. She wasn't even looking behind her. I should have yelled at her or something for being stupid I guess, but I figured it was good she bumped my truck instead of running over someone. Had a dream that night about repeatedly running my front bumper into the side of her truck yelling "how do YOU like it bi$&@!!!"

Received my Autocal from BlackBear. Since it had only been 5 business days and they are in CA and I in MD, I didn't really think it would be there when I got home from work. I was beyond happy to see it. I have done all the initial work on my laptop and made sure the Autocal's firmware is up to date. Now I need to figure out how to retrieve the stock tune and data log. Does it matter which order I do that in? Hoping to data log and send Justin an email by Sunday if not by tomorrow evening.

Posted

nope it doesnt matter. Just make sure if you data log first to clear that off before you pull the stock tunes from the truck. The memory in the autocal isnt the largest.

Posted

Cool... Thanks. I just pulled the stock tunes (I hope). Read E38 and it saved as E38_001 and Read T43 and it saved as T43_002, or at least thats what I believe it said. Should I plug the autocal back into my computer before data logging (since I pulled the stock tunes 1st) and if so will it prompt me where to put them? If not where do I save them to? Sorry, not trying to hijack this thread.

I create a folder and put them in there. Doesn't prompt you you have to move them

Thanks... I was going into the scan and tune icon and not the efi explorer utility. I had already created the folder. Got the stock eng and trans tunes on the laptop now.

You joke but some people do that stuff- I passed an older Caravan coming back from IL today that was hopelessly overloaded and through the tinted glass I could see what had to have been a child hopping around in the back amongst all the crap in the van.

    • 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. 
    • "Life is getting back to normal."    I'm driving again and all new joints are operating as expected for this stage of recovery.   My most recent joint replacement still requires a lot of attention but experience has taught me that time will quiet the remaining pain.  I joked with my surgeon that another joint replacement would take my mind off my most recent surgery and he responded by saying the next will be a hip!  There are no plans for another surgery but, unlike me, I don't think he was joking!  I certainly wouldn't refuse further replacement  if required but hope to spend time out of the "post-op"  period.  I can't stress enough that if you have been recommended for total hip, knee or shoulder replacement that you welcome the offer.  Post-op "recovery" may sound daunting and painful, however, this is far better than the insidious erosion of mobility you are currently experiencing.  Imagine what it would feel like to wake up most mornings feeling better and more mobile than you did the previous day!  Prior to my first surgery in June 2025, even getting out of bed was becoming a formidable task.  Since the day after my first surgery, I get out of bed everyday easily and unassisted.  Making the switch to feeling a little better each day rather than a little worse, is hugely motivating!
