    The answer is yes. It is not in the default display, but you can add virtually any display parameter you want from the ECU, and there are two methods for AT temp.

    And it has has roll and pitch gauges :)

    Have you read the lengthy thread that BrokenTusk made?

    Spotted a white DCSB at northern nights last weekend. Lifted with bumpers, rotopax and a rooftop tent. Was it anyone here?

    I was so stoked they played a lot of their old stuff. Rome seriously is a perfect match for them, and seems like a genuine good person with I respect.

    I've been wanting to see the Dirty Heads for some time now. They are touring with Slightly Stoopid right now. If you haven't seen them, they are definitely worth seeing live. My wife and I saw them at the Greek last year and they absolutely KILLED IT!

    x2. they get all my business. Solved balance issues other shops couldn't, and they just used skill, not gimmickry. They also do work for many of the surrounding dealerships, which have all kinds of crazy stuff.

    I should add that when I said, I won't know if the vibe is solved until I get on the highway, they said no prob, go to work, if we fixed it, call us back with a credit card #.

    Tell me where is in the whole fucking world you will get that these days.

    You guys ever wonder what new members and guest think of this site? I opened up the main page and it's PeeWee's BS build, do Tacoma owners do the wave thread and some other half retarded thread right there. Cracked me up for some reason.
