Well hell I don't know how close you are to him.....but he might want to drive to him so he can look at it and "tune it" how you want.....thats what he wanted me to do....but thats a bit of a drive for me...

I have seen an adress for him that was in Kissimmee, but his site says Orlando. Orlando is 20 minutes away from where I live, but I work in downtown Orlando. Kissimmee is only 30 minutes from home. Either way, it's not very far. By the sounds of it, it sounds like it's best to pay him a visit instead of just over the phone.

You could make it to Orlando from El Paso, that's a hop, skip and jump away. Why didn't you make the trip?

Only 1700 miles

yeah right.....and actually I would have, but at the time the truck was stuck in regen......that would have been one hell of a fuel bill hahaha

I have not seen it yet.

Do the dealerships normally reflash these truck during regular service if there is an update?

Depends on the dealership.....but most of the time you have to ask them

Our's is going to be reflashed before we get it back from the dealer. I asked about it, but they said they do it anyway. Can you believe it is going to take a week to get a new radiator from Ford, even though there is a known problem. Thats over a week in down time. After spending over $40 K on a new truck to solve down time problems, here we are again

Let me know when you get it back Derrick. I would be curious to see what it says and how it acts.

BTW, when was your build date? Mine was 11/07, you would think that all the messages would have been operational by then.

I normally keep the odometer reading & mpg screen up on the message center, and i just happened to look down and saw that instead of the odometer it was reading 'Cleaning exhaust filter'. I only saw the message for about 2 seconds before it was replaced again with the odometer, but I don't know how long before I happened to glance down at the instrument panel that it was displayed.

I am keeping the message area blank now so I have a better chance of seeing the regen message.

I've got about 2500 miles on the truck, so I assume it has regened more than once, I just haven't noticed it. I only use it for long trips with a camper on it, so it usually works fairly hard.
