the mail carriers are messing with me

I had both a UPS truck AND a FedEx truck drop stuff off today, both times my heart was pounding "are these my injectors?!! they cant be, they are supposed to come regular USPS....maybe they are my injectors???!! could the be????" no....they werent.


someone knows I am too excited to wait anymore and they are just toying with me now.

I know the feeling, I hear the different trucks and I run to the window, usually to my dismay. Good luck!

I told you the hard part was waiting for them to be sent back to you! Now sit back and enjoy a cool drink of your choice.

i know the feeling. however my ups guy loves my truck and everytime there is a package with parts in it, he waits to deliver until he is sure i am home,(he actually has driven by the house until its there) just to see what i bought and what else is done to the truck

i didnt think there was a chance of them actually coming today. and wouldnt you know it, the second I go to run an errand, I come back, and there they are sitting on my porch....the problem is, my truck is in central minnesota at the inlaws, so I just finished my 5 hour drive so I can install these things and head back home tomorrow. fun huh?


I am in shock that they made it to me before the weekend! heres hoping the install goes well!

I'm guessing they weren't sent with Delivery Confirmation so you could track them.

Well, it's been over 24 hours and no word. Either it went real bad or his head's swollen so big from the grin he can't get out of the truck to post the update.




I'm betting on the grin personally.

I'm really curious about something. After the fun wears off, let me know what the fuel mileage is like.

ah the old hurry up and wait stuff. im waiting for my new cdi for the rhino this week, last week was a cab for it, hopefully next week it will be a shiny new F.A.S.S. if i finally get off my butt n order it from somewhere. just something about seeing the delivery guy dropping off something for you that brings a smile everytime (or a frown and possible anger when its the women name on it).

i tend not to drive too hard in the first place, so i watched the fuel mileage on the way home last night, didnt calculate it, just estimated it based on previous trips, usually I can make it home from central minnesota to des moines on a little less than half a tank (about 340 miles) and last night was actually no different, when I actually calculate it, I will let you know.

Thanks! I was thinking I read somewhere that the F1's were supposed to be good for a couple MPG bump over stock.
