Glad to hear the drive went alright.

I'll shoot you a PM in a few. Check there. However annoying it is, modifying oem emissions systems is illegal. That is public knowledge, regardless of what my signature leads anyone to believe.

Tried with a domestic truck. No pair, and after trying on 2 different domestic trucks, I decided to just hard wire.

Imo, you've already gone overboard. 15 hour trip/ 1000ish miles, if you're willing to commute in the car all week, there's no reason it'd need anything to do this trip. I'd get in my X5 and tow...

Enjoy! I love mine, and I'm at 246k miles. Treat it well, which it sounds like you have the capability to, and you'll see countless miles from it.
