Home at 10:30.
I HAVE ALWAYS LIKED MY TRUCK......MAN I LOVE MY TRUCK NOW!

Economy setting on interstate at 65 MPH = 13.9 by the pooter. Once I got in down town Greenville I switched it to Daily with speeds between 35-45. Kept it in Daily from G'ville to home (rural roads) and it was showing 14.9 when I shut it down. Due to tire size I can add 7% to these numbers. If the overhead pooter is reading correctly (and it seemed to be) I averaged 15.94 on the way home! I plan to baby it tomorrow and fill it up on Monday to confirm numbers.

I have to admit that I did switch to Street to pass a car on one of the 391 lake crossings. I blew lots of black smoke and the "SES" light came on. I turned the truck off at a traffic light in Newberry and it reset itself. Normal?

It feels like a totally different truck!

Thanks everyone for the help! Can't wait to get the new pyro gauge so I see the exhaust temps.

Thanks Mike and Vickie! Pam and I really enjoyed ourselves.

Pam told me on the way home that she thot all of ya'll were a great bunch of folks. Can't wait to meet up again. Have a great night. She even asked about when SSS08 is going to be. Could she become a Super Duty nut like Granny? Sure would make it easier to buy parts!

Yeah Hank, thats normal. With normal driving, you should see the SES light go off. You need a boost fooler. Get the one from ITP. Its the one I have, no defuel, no light....well at least no light for overboost that is.....hehee
