IS that a DARE???

Was it the "please come inside" that drew your attention, or the "I need black parts?"

Aww, but you always win!!! PS: I still have a "certain" picture of a "certain" camera girl... Wonder what I can get for THAT?

Or what HE said, in Shaun's case...

Haha, please come inside...

Damnit, Shaun... You couldn't have texted me about that? You had to make it public? Oh alright, what do I owe you for damages...

Hey, what a man does on his own time in the privacy of his own home is HIS business... Hi Mike!

...which still remains to be seen... Maybe if I'm in town on one of the 3 days a year you stop shining it and bring it out of the garage, you can show me

I like your R/T, too. It's too bad the only view I ever get of it is in my rear-view mirror on the dragstrip...

Haha, fill the void...

What??? You DRIVE yours?!?! Pics or it didn't happen

Oh Shaun, how I've missed thee... Yeah, I guess resetting the fuel calculator (as soon as I look in there and figure THAT thing out) would help. But still, I wonder why I'm seeing such low MPG even after the tune? Of course, I drive about 80 in the highway, and I know that's not in the "sweet spot" for fuel efficiency, but damnit, I need to be there and I need to be there NOW!!!

As you all know, I bought my truck while I was still in Iraq back in August. It already had an aftermarket (but crappy) CAI, and 3" exhaust. I arranged to have the Black Bear tune sent for and installed before I ever even laid eyes on my truck in September. When I picked it up at the airport, I fooled around with the steering wheel buttons and brought up the MPG AVG display: 14.3 MPG. Well, it's only gone down from there. I've always been a very fuel-efficient driver (and in my SS I've been as efficient as possible, lol) and from the airport I immediatly made the 12+ hour drive to Fort Riley, Kansas. By the time I got there, I was looking at about 13.5 MPG AVG. After a couple months there, a brand new Volant CAI, and another drive back to the great commonwealth of Kentucky, I am now looking at a 13.3 MPG AVG. This never seems to change regardless of hwy driving, city driving, whatever. I ran 91 octane in KS and now that i'm home I've run nothing but 93. Is this right? Does it have anything to do with the tune? How far back in the driving history does the SS CPU go to find the current "average?" The last 24 hours? Week? LIFE?!?!

Thanks for the info guys. I'm going to try a couple things before just scrapping the RWs, then I'll give just plain CD-Rs a try. I don't think iTunes has many options when it comes to burning, so I might have to DL some new software.

I use iTunes, and the only thing I haven't tried yet is burning them as mp3 files. I've tried to burn them as audio files, with and without the text info. I'll try the mp3 format today.

I had thought about it, actually. I'm just worried I'd screw it up and have to find another set of lamps ASAP, lol.

Whelp, it was bound to happen, but I got home from a drive to Lexington today and noticed I lost one of my parking light covers. I knew it was just a matter of time, but I'm sure that automatic carwash I unwittingly drove through didn't help... (It was 20 degrees, the DIY booths were all closed). If anyone has a pair of bottom covers they'd like to get rid of, PM me please. If you'd rather sell the whole 4-piece set, I'm willing to do that if need be.

The Cds I used to burn and use in my last 2 Chevy trucks (aftermarket CD players) don't work in my SS. I've tried a couple different brands, but I always get an error when I try to play them in the truck. Who else burns their own CDs, and what brands have you gotten to work?

Translation: His is the clone, lmao!

I like the 3rd one.

This is going to be the biggest year of my life. Back from Iraq, out of the army, newly single, living in a new state, starting college in the fall... Might buy a house. My resolution I guess is to start living the rest of my life.

Wow, I just realized that if Minnesota loses tonight and next week, and we beat Philly, that would make us the #2 seed and we'd have a first round bye!!! Wow, 2 weeks ago it was looking like we wouldn't even make the wildcard, now we have a chance for the NFC East and #2 seed!!!

I still have my stock exhaust w/ mufflers, if you want em.
