yeah, that's true - I'd like to be able to keep them on for an extended period of time like you did or it kind of defeats the purpose - I wonder if you put red lights in there and wired them to the taillights if that would be legal to run all the time at night?

 

put in the red for running lights, put in the white for cargo and wire them to the different harnesses...?

Another member suggested the red LED bulbs as well as running lights, I'm not sure if it would be legal though. I'd imagine it would be and look pretty cool and then still put in a second LED bulb for the cargo lights

I like that additional spring as well as the new front rotors. What did they run you?

$120 for the springs through Amazon and then $220 for the rotors and pads but they had a 10% off coupon so it brought it down to just over $200 shipped with tax

Bought a range unit off a fellow member and had it on the truck for a day until I got my Diablosport intune i2 in yesterday (from yet another member lol). Much better pedal feel and shifts quicker, plus got it for $320, not too shabby. Also adjusted for the 33's

How do you feel about firm shift? I changed mine back to stock. Was afraid it's trash the tranny. What else have you changed with the tune?

AFM off, firm shift, torque management turned off, throttle booster up to 20%. I don't believe it hurts the tranny at firm shift, I wanna try the hard shift see how I like it. The harder the shift, the quicker the shift. My 02 silverado had a performabuilt trans in it and that thing would shift so hard it'd throw your head into the headrest if you didn't have it there already lol

What does torque management do? I can't find much on it.

I believe it limits the amount of torque initially put out from the motor during take off to reduce wheel spin

And I changed out the cabin air filter today, at 42k it was way overdue

Also thought I bought an engine air filter the other day, but I guess I didn't. Still on the fence about an intake which I think is why I decided not to buy a new filter. I'm not doing an intake necessarily for "performance gains" (although that would be nice if I didn't get a little something) but more for easier access to the alternator with a ground tab so when I jump trucks it's easier to get a good ground. The negative battery terminal is a little difficult to get to with heavy duty jumper cables

Baer says their kits work from 99-2016. Gives me hope for the supposed brembos coming out for the 16's.

    • I was the GM of a Lincoln Mercury dealership back in the 80's. The service lot was always full with "broken" ones. Plenty of transmissions, power windows and a/c repairs. The only one I'd consider owning would be the Marauder at this point and it certainly wouldn't be a daily driver.  My 2025 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali Ultimate is my "Lincoln Town Car" in my retirement. I want all the "stuff". Big infotainment screens, one touch power windows, Supercruise (I won't buy another vehicle without it), hands free pretty much everything. I'm going to swap my current truck for a 2027 Yukon Denali Ultimate so I can have the air suspension and surround vision recording along with all the other "stuff". 
    • Yep mine is on backorder also.
    • The Denali Ultimate's grille is tinted, but the "regular' Denali has a bright chrome grille like the current models.
    • Because that is IDIOTIC, much like this question. They've already been forced to do it by past administrations - why would you roll that back when it's a GOOD thing?  WHO IS ARGUING FOR LOWER MILEAGE???? 😂  NOBODY IS!!   I'm certainly not! What I want is RELIABLE vehicles again that are worth the price paid!    I don't get your logic here ...   In 2003 I paid $2,200 for our '86 Grand Marquis. It's STILL running and I've never been inside the engine, aside for the timing cover since it was leaking, so I threw a new timing set in since that makes sense. Transmission is ORIGINAL. Electric pump in the gas tank is ORIGINAL. Rear end is ORIGINAL. I'd have to hit my head REAL hard to want to pay $60k or more for a car that still can't come close to the comfort, seating and storage space, or reliability of this one. Nothing is even in the ball park! Hundreds of thousands of brands and models have been built and sent to the crusher while this one keeps on going!   https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   I've got a whole fleet of cars, motorcycles, and a truck close to this age for summer and winter. No one could pay me enough to buy anything built this century. I have zero use for any it.
    • Since I'm the one who has to fix them when they break, I'll take vehicles over 30 years old all day, EVERY day, over ANY modern crap. Have you attempted any repairs on anything built after 2006? It's a friggin nightmare, and gets worse the newer the model year.    If I had the will or desire, I can make any car of any age outside of a Model T (I don't have THAT much will ...) just as powerful, comfortable, and have all the tech the new stuff does, and get pretty close in mileage, too. I prefer SIMPLICITY. The less the vehicle has, the less to fix WHEN it breaks, not IF.   I'm glad you snot-nosed punks don't like them. More for us, plus that keeps the prices from climbing more than they already have.👍
