    Yeah I would have been too after spending the kind of money you did for that rig! Is the power issue getting back on track to what it should be?

    Yes and no. The Detroit shop changed the programming to remove the "fuel saving" program that came from the factory but turned up the HP at the same time. Then they dyno'd the truck again. The % to the rear wheels did not change - it is still at 76%- but when they raised the rated to 560 it got me like 45+ HP. I will run it for a few weeks and take it back for them to look at. The are still trying to get the % to come up over 80%.

    That being said, I can probably live with where it is right now as I can finally get up to 65 mph

    No, the factory would not put one in with all the emissions stuff, said it would not read anything meaningful. I have the data readout from the ECM. Runs mostly around 475 unless I pull a long grade then I can get it up to about 650

    Forklift to Miami Beach Boat Show, Mobile Screener 80,000#, 15' 8" tall, whole thing runs off 2 buttons and a remote control. wanted to get a shot with the pole car but he was gone quick. Warehouse stock picker, stupid thing was so low to the ground w/ an electrical gremlin. I've never had so much trouble with a machine.
