    Can ya spell Tonneau
    Sounds like snake oil. ~30% increase from a tuner? We don't have turbo diesels.
    Make sure you research it and check out URD before you make the buy, 'less you have disposable $

    Oh wait. It's you Dave. Yah go get the chip thing, wake up the Fiat.

    No, I seriously called bs on the tuner when I first caught wind of it. Haven't done a ton of research on it at this point but everything I've read claims the same gains.

    It's all f-ing new to me. It's been the typical first week of owning a vehicle. Clogging my brain with 1,000,000,000 things I can, will, want to, and are thinking about doing.

    I've got a problem haha

    Oh and 15/285 would put it at a 5% gain. I think the max claims they make likely include you buying intake header and catback.

    Hell I don't know. Again, I'm insane.

    Oh yea that's on the list but not in a rush. They are expensive and I don't really need one until winter time. Plan is to put away some money each month to buy one while still saving for other mods..namely a lift.

    Ok so today randomly my truck is getting really bad vibes in second gear when it reaches 1500rpms.....haven't changed anything and I looked and the carrier bearing is still snug. Not sure what it is but the vibes are pretty bad. Worse than on my lifted 05 I had before this that had a 3in lift. Any ideas?? It's a 6speed btw

    Not a steering wheel vibe it's in the floorboard and pedals and feels like I'm going over a lot of tiny speed bumps

    Found out it's my u joints today. I had slammed on the brakes to stop from going 55 yesterday on a back road and tonight my u joints started squeaking so I'm going to replace them and I'm pretty sure that'll solve my problem

    Yeah I'm about to today lol. Just got the truck 3 weeks ago with 75k miles so I didn't think to do it. Also the pre runner I had before didn't have factory greasable joints but this 4x4 does.

    That'll be fun haha I'd recommend cleaning the nipples off prior to attempting to pump them with grease. Also on the rear portion of the driveshaft you could pump forever and never get any to come out so I'd just pump it a few times for that one
