I started my new job today, I went from 60 miles round trip to 12. At this rate I'll fill up once a month :dance: Ridiculous

About $65.00, really not that bad. I was paying about $50-$55 on my Jeep, and it was much worse on the MPG's.

Very nice, Marcus!!!
That 3.5 EB is a great motor but you should check out the tuner from Livernois Motorsports.
It pulls an extra ~100 hp and 125 lb/ft tq as long as you're running 92+ octane.
Also has a couple tow tunes in it.

I was at 571 miles to go when I pulle in my driveway. Looks like you have a 17 with the 10 speed, how is it?. I sniped probably one of the few remaining 16s in the area.

Get a boost max from JMS. It's a leave in module that goes in the ALDL port. It leaves no signature on the computer.
what year? my stepson just bought a 13 identical to that.

First couple hundred miles it is in it's "learning" stage, and hunts for gears. Once you get past that, you can't tell a difference from any other transmission.

Oh yes. Ford does NOT like tuners on their vehicles. You can't just put it back to stock either, they can tell it has been tuned.

The JMS boostmax leaves no signature as it doesn't modify the code written on the computer. It sends a command similar to a tech 2

They are exactly the same as the F150 now, they're using the same cab now on both trucks.
