    @Pixeltim already made a bar for the 4Runner. I like the meat wagon idea.

    I believe we can tandem in Wisconsin. :D

    No biggie! Part of it was on me for not heading to camp earlier. I overestimated what my little Weber could do. @pearing gave me a great tip about pre-boiling the potatoes so they could be ready faster. But hey if there's enough interest I'll make something similar with pork shoulder (v2?). I skipped the tequila marinade on the chicken so I can definitely add that this time too.

    I love that people are willing to share! And, that shit was delicious! I think it will be awesome if we can kinda plan ahead so that everyone can just do one thing, and it will be easier.

    Pot luck is always a fun time. Stoney Ranger would probably agree.

    OK if I'm able to make the next trip, I want to share a campsite with whoever brings this.

    Well, I'm thinking a tune is in order this summer. Is Mr. Moose still my best bet for a tune?

    So I admittedly didn't pay all that much attention to tunes, but were they always $450? For some reason I had it in my head they were like half that lol

    I had the same thinking as you. When I realized I was going to have to drive to Chicago (which I hate doing) I PM'd one of the KDMAX guys to see how much it would cost to do a remote tune if I bought the necessary stuff, I believe it was over $700. Looks like I'll be driving to Chicago....

    They were.. til you had to license the truck vin instead of just unlocking the ecu id. Added about $100 a truck. Plus most tunes are developed now vs coming from the Ovtune packs so some goes to the creators as well

    Yup it adds about $200 for the hardware. The nice part is, then you have the hardware if you ever want to switch tunes or there are future updates

    Hmmm. I guess that puts the tune further down on my priorities list lol. I'm sure I will still get one at one point but I'm not like a lot of the people who can't stand how their truck drives. I'm actually quite satisfied for the most part. Only reason I am even considering a tune is because why would I not want it to be even better.
