    Rolled on some bed liner on my side steps. I bought a gallon for 5 bucks at a garage sale this past weekend. It looks better than the silver IMO!

    Not sure if Ultragauge will show fuel economy but that is what I have set on my Scangague

    MPG, Average MPG, Miles to Empty and Cost per tank. Kinda changes how you drive when you have a real time readout of fuel use.

    it does all that too. I bought mine from CL, so there's no directions, imo it's pretty much self explanatory on how to setup the gauges you want to keep tabs on. also has alarms for your gauges.

    I've had mine a while now. No destructions came with it, they ask you to go to their site if I remember correctly. The only thing missing, both from the Toy factory and the Ultra Gauge, is something to show oil psi.:notsure:

    I watch voltage, intake temp., rpms., and actual temp. I never calibrated it for tire size so milage and speed are both off. Just a case of laziness by me. Jumping through the hoops to get the factory rebate was a cluster fuck too!

    Used a hair dryer to heat them just a little bit, then peeled the tape. A good buddy of mine had bought a 3M Stripe off wheel so I borrowed that. The TRD decals and a few spots from the pinstripes were extra stubborn, so I used adhesive remover. Washed the residue off, clay bar over stripes and badges and then waxed the whole thing
