    Wilco is insanely proud of what they build. People buy it but what they want for some of that stuff is insane.

    You ain't kidding...that shit is ridiculous.

    How do you feel about that cut? I'm thinking if I am cutting I might as well just cut for a new bumper... :notsure:

    Aesthetically.?. I find it ugly in my opinion. But to each there own. At the same time, if I this cut is preventing some kinda rub for a larger tire and works, then so be it. still ugly tho. but who am I to say something with a stock truck. Ha-ha.

    As for your cut comment for a new bumper.. 100% agree.

    Finally had some time to try 4wd. It's strange, it's like the buzzing humming vibration comes and goes. After work on Monday it was really noticeable all the time between 30-60mph, but yesterday it was subtle and cyclic. 4wd didn't seem to make a big difference, at least not one I can't attribute to placebo effect, but the vibration was so subtle it might just not have noticed.

    It's not super likely that it's your bushing then. When I replaced mine, it was like an on-off switch for the vibration when I put it in 4wd. That said, it's a good idea anyways to install the ecgs bushing.

    Purchase the tune and put it on a thumbdrive. I flash the tunes for $200. I need internet access (I believe) to flash. I can do it just about where ever with my super snazzy laptop.

    I need your opinion.

    2020 turd pro. 20k miles. All the extra superficial goodies, and a magnuson supercharger. All have been on for a year except the sc (maybe 6 months).

    Current state, sitting in driveway dead as of sunday.
    Sunday morning I noticed it rough idled several times. When I got home and parked it wouldn't start. Battery right....nope.
    New battery and nada. Lights work, radio, all electrical. I hear something run toward the rear and a pump in the engine bay but no clicking. Just a single click.
    Checked the fuses and they're all good.
    What next? Hammer on the starter? Any suggestions at this point would be helpful.

    You really thought no one would want a free molle panel? Bitches love molle panels.

    If I were in your shoes? Call the dealer and have them tow it to the dealership and fix it under warranty. The supercharger may throw a wrench in that though....

    I bought the desert does it seat jackers, to relieve my lower back pain because of the seats. but didn't think the molle panel was a necessity. but in this case it is now. lol

    Got home last night and realized I missed a couple items for my garage giveaway.

    -Bostitch reciprocating saw (Sawzall)
    -cordless 1/4-inch ratchet

    The tools from this and the other post are just from me upgrading. The 1/4-inch ratchet is some no-name brand off Amazon. I bought it to see how much I would use it before I dropped big money on a name brand. I've had it for a couple of years and it works great. I've been pretty impressed with it.

    I think @the.sight.picture was hoping you had the kdmax tune laying around after upgrading to VR...don't worry Nick, me too, me too. Figured Dave could be a one stop total tune offering shop, be it VF alone, or adding KDmax or Valley Runner, etc.

    Maybe someday. The few tunes I've done, I've saved. Not sure if they're tied to a VIN, but only one way to find out.
