Another week gone. Nothing but good news to report. I thought I would get a little better economy with having replaced and fixed a good bit of the intake but any savings I probably waste by gaining joy from putting my foot down. Its no rocketship but its decently quick. I am growing a little tired of the 4.10 gears though. I still have a lengthy list of updates and refreshing to do though.

Battery appears to be holding a charge fine. I haven't had to jump the truck in about 3 weeks. My Ribbon cable fix for the MID was a complete disaster. I am considering just buy an MID out of a junker. My Aux-in kit works great. I still need to post a pic of that but I have another mod I would like to complete. Still intend to do the boot pioneer program. Things have been a little slow and so I am waiting for an influx of cash to put towards boots and a new knob. I also will be having the truck buffed which will hopefully remove some of the ugliness the PO left me with. Fingers crossed that some of the various imperfections will come out.

Next fix will be axles. Considering go as cheap as possible as no one has specifically said its a bad idea. then I have a sway link, rear struts, and possibly a tie-rod to tend with. Truck is driving well though. I am hoping another couple hundred bucks will get me through to the Fall.
