    No mud flaps, plasti dipped emblems, and rear bumper, Weather tech digital fit, Bed mat from tractor supply. Pioneer 4400BH head unit. B.A.M.F bed rail tie downs. AVS vent visors.
    need to run more than one tank of ethanol free fuel. the 1st tank you will still have some ethanol fule in the tank/system.
    I have seen slights gains running 93 over 87. and the truck runs a little better.

    and this is because with 93 the computer can advance the timing further without knock sensors detecting knocks.
