I have liked my truck since I bought it. With the programmer, I love my truck now. Can't wait to get my exhaust, electric fans, underdrive pullies, and custom tunes. I was running a 0-60 time, and actually smoked the tires for the first time without the road being wet. Also, the belt chirp is pretty nice. What causes that anyway?

Belt chirp is caused by the transmission locking up quickly during a shift, which changes the engine RPM suddenly, causing the serpentine belt to slip. It's not harmful, but it does get your attention!

The "chirp" can be quieted with a Goodyear gatorback belt.

Peace!
