Oh, speaking of Smarty Jr., I'm wondering if I'd notice gains by adding it. I do try to drive like a grandma for mpg's sake. I'm not always grandma, I have spurts of defiance. Just debating the rewards of dropping $400+. It is the forbidden fruit.

You can see some mileage increase because of the timing increase the programming gives you....But most of my customers never really see much of a gain in mileage because the truck becomes so much fun to drive, they end up driving it with their foot glued to the floor

If you can manage the grandma style of driving, (at your young age) then you will see a increase in mileage

Shorts-just want to make it clear- I'm just opposite of you on vehicles-not on polotics! I know your thoughts on other threads, and I think very much as you political threads. My Charger is the 6.1, and I guess the one you have is the 5.7? Anyway, give the gift to the hubby as a surprise! Let him get a ticket as a surprise!

You know what? I think I did the Charger equivalent to spelling Cummins with a 'g'. Apparently, according to the guys in the know, I'm suppose to describe the car as Charger "R/T" so to designate the Hemi. I was just lazy typing RT, which I guess is too close to the package "R&T" or "Road and Track" which indicates red stitching on the leather (which the car does not have btw!), but she does have suede inserts..???.

Ohh,... yes, the car is a 5.7

It's all about feeling and acting like you wanna be treated Bark. So, really get into character and I'm sure you can sell it without the 'shrooms

Aprons are good. After all, you don't want to fry bacon in the nude.

Very true. There are hazards associated with frying bacon....or doing anything in the nude really

HEEHEEEEEHEHEHE Box should be delivered by the end of UPSs day. I'm expecting a ring any time now.



Still not sure how I wanna surprise him. The 'easy' button is hand it to him with an "I got this for you". He doesn't go out of town for another week or two..or three...Don't know if I can hold a secret that long. Especially one I wanna fool with too! I'm trying not to get caught looking at any Charger related videos, products or forums as it is.

Well I gave him the box, I couldn't wait for an cool elaborate scenario so I said, 'here this is yours'

We read instructions and go out to install. The programmer says the car needs an update and to refer to the Diablo Sport site to do that, then continue the install. So we go to the site and the thing is down!

We can't update the PCM until the site goes back online. Can anyone double check that its their site and not on our end? We can't access it from our phones either.
