What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Looks great

 

Well I just got my options form for my GoFast, hoping to get it in late May... bye bye money.

 

Plugged in my truck for a trickle charge since there is no Magnuson/AGM battery tune available yet. Hopefully soon…

 

While I'd be interested in the extra viewing angle, I'm confused as to why I'd want a turn signal in the mirror itself when I have a turn signal on the outer housing that can be viewed from the rear. Also confused as to why I'd want blue tint.

 

Not the OP but any addition to letting others around you know of your intent to turn cant be a bad thing. Also it looks cool IMO. The blue tint does cut down on glare from anyone with high beams on or having the sun peaking over the horizon directly behind you. I purchased mine at cartrimhome.com

 

so I did go with the prinsu light bar mounts, mainly cause when I picked up the rack the guys at caliraised said I need it. But looking at the brackets the only difference I can see is that the ones that come with the Callieraised light bar may put the light bar lower and closer to the wind deflector.

 

Eh, I remain unconvinced. One, I think the extra amber light would serve to blind me as much as informing others. Two, I shouldn't be able to see anyone directly behind me with their highbeams on in my side mirrors anyway if they are correctly adjusted (and they are). And three, anyone beside me with their highbeams on shouldn't be there for long.

I'd still be interested in the basic version with no tint, no turn signal, and defrost but the rest of that just isn't my style I guess.

 

Do AGM batteries last longer than non AGM? What advantages do AGM batteries have?

I’ve had good experiences with battery life with Odyssey batteries in all of my cars.

 

Might be worthwhile to ask them. I just know that manufacturers tend to stray away from safety systems due to the assumed liability in claiming the safety feature is supported.

 

I can't tell if those are the red or smoked, but I like them a lot.

 

There isn't a specific tune for it, right, but I believe the OVTune has an option where if you make your own config, you can set the charge voltage. Don't quote me on that, it is something I read a while back, so I might be wrong.

 

Just don't try to charge them quickly....as you obviously know with your trickle charging.......

 

You are correct but the Magnuson tune is locked so that can’t be changed. @mZiggy is working on a better solution.

 

Even if gas was $2/gal?

 

I’ve got 285/70/17’s (32.9”) tires wheels with -12 offset rub free and no need to do a cab mount chop. I did do some minor trimming of the wheel liner and front bumper clip to be able to shift the front of the liner forward by a bolt hole. You can see the mod on my build thread in my signature.

 

Congratulations man! You are gonna love how capable your new rig is! Don’t forget, the owners manual suggests using the four wheel drive system 10 miles a month to keep everything lubricated and in good working order.

 

What type of trickle charger do you have?

 

It’s an Odyssey 20 amp charger:
