: Truck Runs Better Than Ever .............

I got to drive my truck for the first time since we completed the mods we put in yesterday. It ran like a "raped Ape" as some would say. So good that I got my first warning for speeding. I was doing 69 in a 55 oops!:(

The worst part about it is that it was running so good I didn't really notice - before when it was running like a slug it took a lot to get it going over 60 so I really didn't realize I was speeding which of course I told the trooper that in my most darling voice. I was so thankful that he only gave me a warning - from now on though I think I will keep the speeding on the big road to a minimum and keep the speeding to the back roads. ):h

I just thought I would share that with you all just because. :angel:

Invest in a good radar detector ;) I can't tell you how many times it has saved my bacon, that & CB radio.

We have a CB we use when we go traveling that we stick in the truck but this wasn't on the highway but a main route so I didn't have the CB in yet. Radar Detectors are illegal in PA now so that wouldn't have worked either.
