Default Greetings from Monroe, GA

Just joined up after purchasing my '02 F250 today (also felt like I needed to after reading Corey's "lurker" post). Looking forward to coming up to Winder, talking to Bill, and getting some work done.

Sorry, really don't know what else to say right now, except for ROCK ON!!

Later!

Welcome to the party! Always glad to have a fellow Georgians around.

Holler when you're ready for some tuning.

Thanks all! Glad to be here!

Chipped and installed as of 2015 hrs on 3/4/09.
All I can say is holy
What a night and day difference!

I know that I have to get some more highway miles on it to really tell, but I reset my mpg indicator on the way home, and when I got here, 23.4 mpg! It was actually at 27.3 until I hit a few hills. When I've been driving around before the tune, the best that I've seen on it was 17.2 on the hwy, so I can't wait to get a good run on it and see what it does. BTW, that was in the 100hp setting too.

Bill, thanks, you're awesome!

Bryan,

Enjoyed meeting and chatting with you last night. As you can tell, I'm a chatty sort of person, which sometimes can be a handicap. :whistle:

One thing... don't believe the "Lie-O-Meter" for fuel economy. One of the unfortunate side effects of tuning is that the accuracy of the MPG is adversely affected. The DTE should still be pretty accurate since it basically calculates off the amount of fuel in the tank versus miles driven.

Let us know how it goes after a fill-up and you can put pencil and paper to it.

Take care and if we don't catch you before then, have a safe and enjoyable trip to Alaska!
