I still need to do my tuneup. My truck still isn't running like it should. But yeah, the good mileage was nice. RWD, smaller tires seem to help, lol. I'm just surprised that I got such good mileage in what would be considered city driving I guess.

Well, it looks like one of the plug wires had a crack in it exposing the electrical stuffz inside to the elements. I hope this time I fixed it! (knock on wood) lol

Thanks white99ls!

And Will, mine are 5000k. They are super white with a very slight blue tint.



OH! little update for everyone. My truck is running fantastic, and I average 17mpg with about 90% city driving. Not bad.

And time to make some noise!!!


No, they aren't my subs, they are being borrowed lol.
One of my friends wrecked his car, and he plans on buying a super cheap car to tie him over until he can get something nice. Well, until he gets that nice car (which he said is at least 8 months) I get to use his subs. By then I'll have the money to buy my own.

2 12" Pioneer subs with a 750? watt Pioneer amp. Luckily my truck came with audio cables and the remote wire so all I need is the power and ground. The problem is... I have no idea where to run the power wire, and am not sure where to put the ground.
Maybe ground it onto that bolt pictured below. It's one of the metal stands that hold the back seat.
