    He did say a couple days ago that since he's doing updates, he's throwing in some other extras at the same time.

    Plus, he does have other committments I expect, since he doesnt tune only our Tacomas, and where tuning is concerned, it's for the best that he ensures everything is perfect. If it's not, people are going to jump on here to bitch and whine, except that instead of complaining about wait times for this update or for their dongles to ship, they'll be whining about waiting for a tune that still needs adjustments.

    I know that hearing "just be patient" over and over again probably gets old, but..."just be patient"

    I command a unicorn, so he could take a year for all I care about receiving an update :rofl:

    Clearly my truck's ECU was assembled on a Monday. Everybody else had theirs made on a Friday afternoon :D

    Anyone have instructions for data logging? I have TechStream installed and can connect to the truck. Just don’t know where to go from there.

    For those of you who do not have a laptop to load the tune with I have a relatively inexpensive alternative for you.

    RCA Cambio 10.1" 2 in 1 32GB Tablet with Windows 10, Intel Atom Z8350 2GB RAM, Includes Keyboard from Walmart. $87.98

    It has a standard USB port and a micro USB port so you will need a micro USB to USB adapter such as one of these.
    https://www.amazon.com/UGREEN-Adapt...d=1523242142&sr=8-3&keywords=micro+usb+to+usb
    https://www.amazon.com/Joyshare-Mic...=1523242168&sr=8-10&keywords=micro+usb+to+usb

    I have a laptop but I bought one of these just to test out and it worked. Just thought this may help some folks out.

    The shenanigans and impatience on this site is probably enough to drive a man to drink lol

    Not saying @Chipi3s is being impatient either. Just generalizing
