Test Alpha

Posted October 24, 2014

Ran a few tanks of E85, mileage dropped from 22.4 to 19.5 I did the math and it's cheaper to run E85 in my truck (RCLB 5.3/3.42) plus I like the noticeable bump in power!

- July 2026 upgrade push issues

  I went to Home Depot last week and experienced an upgrade push. Unfortunately, since then the Auto start/stop no longer works which frankly is no great loss. However the loss of the front bumper sensors has me concerned, as I had other computer problems a month ago with the fuel gauge and cruise control failing completely. Had to take it to a a dealer in NC for repairs.

  I had the same problem on my 26 Canyon. I went into the setting page and toggled the speed limit indicator into the on position. There was no need for Waze or Google Maps. The speed limit no shows in the HUD as well as on the dash. Hope this helps.

  And I just realized you have to do one more step. Both labels are important. The GVWR in mine is 7200lbs. So that would be the weight of the truck fully loaded correctly. Take that weight and subtract the 1602 lbs for mine (combined total of all the added stuff) and I come out to 5598lbs empty. I hope that helps get you pointed in the right direction.
