to me, it read as like he didn't want to spend a ton of cash on it to get better mileage for a DD.

brother you don't even know me, so don't go acting like you do.

but @ least we can spell up here.
huh?? ok i guess.. what loss??? lol wow

and as for spellin, we just tend to go fast and get the point across, next time I will take my time and spell it wright, or is it right, or maybe rite..lol who knows...what a hoser aye!!!lol

anyway back to the topic, as I said it was my opinion and thats it.

Also dont forget to check craigslist out for a cheap shop or fix it guy for the bravada, I have had good luck with that too, maybe save you some bux.

WTF? i though defrosting mirrors was an auto thing....
over head console manual says:
all you can change on the basic console is the compass (this is what i did: moved compass from indiana to oregon)
1 press and hold both ON/OFF and the US/MET buttons. Dispaly will go off.

2 after 5 secs, Var CAL will appear on the screen. at that point, let go of the buttons.

3 press US/MET to cycle through the options

4 press ON/OFF to select


if you have the high speed one that tells you all kinds of crap, i hate you, but here you go:
to change to compass...
1 go through steps 1-2 but instead of VAR CAL it will show the current compass zone number. when this happens, let go of the buttons.

go to trip mode:
press the MODE button to see all the neatoness (avg econ, inst econ, range, fuel used, avg speed)


HERE BE PAY DIRT:
to reset it, hold MODE and US/MET for at least 2 secs. All functions will be displayed for .5 seconds when the rest is done.
RESET CAN ONLY BE PREFORMED IN: avg econ, fuel used, and avg speed mode. all 3 will reset at the same time...

i'll set up a pay pal account, and you can all drop change in it at you leasure

and seriously what loss? did canada lose at some winter games event or something

yeah, my LT has the heated mirrors, apparently it works with the rear window defrost. didn't know 'cause my rear wire fell off the window the first week i had it (original owner = older woman = dumbass boyfriend = fail repair!)

that the part that's was missing from my instructions (#4 font part).

i'm just gonna start throwing pennies @ you now, eventually i'll get enough of them to you to cover your of info. see, that's why i always give a nickel's worth of info.

don't bother with the exchange rate Curtis, my stuff's priceless really.

i guess he was refering to you guys (that'd be the U.S. of A) winning against the Canuks (that'd be the Canadian's, not the Canadiens) @ the Olympics a few hours ago. doesn't matter, i don't follow hockey (pisses of my Mother-in-Law royally! )

Thank you i will drop my 2cents off tmrw lol,i will try this tmrw.And yes i have the version with the avg econ, inst econ, range, fuel used, avg speed info.To be honest i thought all versions were like that,its kinda useful really though i usually leave it on instant economy and watch my mpgs fluctuate as i drive or the temperature setting as i like to know how cold its gonna be when i get outta my car or how hot it might be in summer.

don't worry Bra (is that kinda like "bro"?), i bought my truck fom the original owner, and she had no idea what happened to it (!).

and never mind too cheap, i can't find one anywhere. hell, i had an easier time finding a BN copy of the 1970 factory service manual for my Dart. it was still so new, it actually made that "creek/crack" sound like a new book does!
