Default JUST SAYIN HI !
Hey everyone, the name is James. Live over here in CA, up north. Live up near the Santa Rosa area, but I own a shop down in San Rafael, wich is just north of the Golden Gate. During the day, the shop is strictly Mercedes, after hours it turns into an off-road shop. Feels like i basically live here (and yes, I have sleeping quarters up stairs ! ). I have been around the garage my whole life, as this was my Dad's as I was growing up (still mainly is his). Got me a Gryphon awhile back, just rocking the stock tunes right now, but was pleasently surprised, and pleased with them. I have driven out to Vegas with the tunes, netting me 18MPG's on a lifted F150 with 35" HEAVY mud terrains. I also recently towed a Toyota truck on a 400 mile trip along CA, and was netting almost 13 mpg's the whole time. Very impressed with the tunes, and just stoked to see what custom tunes do.

We need your input on these posts, Mercedes (well, James, really). Glad you've joined us here, and I look forward to your thoughts, as I do on the f150 forum.

I was born in California. A little gold mining town by the name of Grass Valley, up near Donner Pass.

James has informed me of a nice dyno shop out west that we may being doing some business with to set up an event. I've not had a chance to contact them yet, but we'll definitely be setting something after the first of the year and will let all the left-coasters know.

I apprecaite the warm welcome Jack&Janet ! VERY familiar with Grass Valley, family lives there, Mom was born and raised. Small worl huh ? I venture out that way, and in the Auburn area very frequently, as well as donner. Lots of good back road trails. Lots of fun rocks to crawl and old mining towns to check out. Absolutely love it out that way. When did you move out ?

Looking forward to it. They were the first that came to mind when ya mentioned the dyno. But, if for any reason you want a different location, or whatever, let me know. I know of a couple fairly local to me.


Anyways, to everyone: I really appreciate the nice welcome !! Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy ! :luvcomp:
Anyways, anyone ever need anything, got a question, or in the area, feel free to e-mail me ! Here to help, and always willing to throw back a cold and and talk trucks. Hope everyone had a good holiday, and happy new years to yall ! Be safe !

They used to have an annual SWAT coppetition in Grass Valley. I don't think they host it anymore though.
