    It is a really good pic. I like it and the one where all the trucks are parked together after the first couple of obstacles on the trail before lunch. ;)

    Well... I have a job and I have little money. Dang bills.:mad:

    But on a more expensive note - who all have been shopping for upgrade parts since Saturday?

    I shouldn't complain since most people go through college while having a job. It's basically impossible for me to have a full time job and stay on a 4 year plan for a mechanical engineering degree

    If your bored, read this. Found it in another thread.

    This is the most detailed info I have ever seen on our engines. I read most of it already, and skimmed over the rest.

    what they need to do is set cruise controls based on your RPMs

    Or when you are at the top of a hill it goes 5 mph faster than you set it at?

    Never had a downshift problem with mine. It does suck with holding speed though. Honestly I think its just not programmed to react quick enough.

    Its strange because my 4cyl manual was rock solid at holding speed.

    I have more issues with this than the down shifting. Also the slowing down to 5 mph slower at the bottom of the hill. If I wanted to fluctuate my driving by 10 mph I'd just drive like everyone else....

    I've thought of this too.
    Now that you mention it, my s-10 I had was 4cyl manual and was also dead on.
