well i havent been doing much other than driving the ole girl and trying to be cheap with my money lately cause having money in the back is better than a additional credit card debt! i just got all my credit cards paid off mostly with a bank loan which should be me ALOT since its only like 8% compared to the CC companies 24 and one was even 29%! so atleast this way im saving quite a bit in interest and im canceling most the cards to keep my spending in check for once! and only having to pay 1 monthly payment instead of 4-5 is awesome feeling! LOL
only real updates are i replaced my parking lights with some new more stockish style ones cause my old ones have either dirt built up inside them that or the chrome is messing up, but after i swapped them out i noticed my bulbs where loose in the socket on atleast one of them. turns out the foam ring that seals the bulb to the lights was missing! which i still need to put some on there. atleast i got 4 from the junkyard afew days ago so now i just gotta feel like installing them. but i like the looks of the new ones. gives it more of a stock but clean look instead of the clear ones i had.

and yes i got a light bulb out. already bought a new bulb, was waiting to install it when i got those foam gaskets. now just lazy from working a double today.
but one huge plus is i found this little toy in the junkyard! ScanGaugeII very cool little toy to see your gas milage and such real time and it doesnt get any easier to instal! just plug into the OBDII port! i found it in a 2003 crown vic just sitting in the passenger seat with the cord under the drivers seat. kinda like someone was checking it out and either didnt know what it was or they just forgot about it! hell i didnt pass it up tho. looked it up on my phone and say all the cool features so i snagged that sucker up along with its rear view mirror mount and cable extension.

it is a older unit BUT the unit is the same they just updated the software inside it and they offer a upgrade/update for only 25bucks if its older than a year old which is very reasonable. and i emailed them and asked them about the new features and that the rear plug doesnt work properly and to see how much they would charge for repair along with the update software.... and i get a email back saying they will fix it for free and update it for free and i dont even have to pay return shipping either. id just have to ship it into them with my info and afew details! THATS AWESOME!!!!!!! i just shipped it in afew days ago finaly cause i was so busy lately. hopefully that sucker gets back soon fixed and updated! and it wasnt fully broken just the rear plug must have a bad joint on it BUT they also have a side plug on the unit and that plug worked perfect so i could have still used it. i did test it out in the truck for a week or so to play around with it but its manual is 60pages and they have changed quite a bit from my software model so i couldnt figure out to much of it from there online manual.LOL
but hell a company that will repair and update there software for free and even ship it back to you....... HELLS YA THATS SWEET!!!!!!!! AAAAA+++++
that software has got to be super old! 3.15 and now there software is like 4.05 or something.
ive been looking for one of those factory denali MPG units to do a swap into my truck for quite a while now and this thing is 10X better than those things! it can check and clear trouble codes, plug into any OBDII port.
and with the mirror mount thats a $200 value! i paid like 10bucks for it
hahaha winning!!! o ya and like 8 bucks or so for shipping to them.
the only downfall is i cannt install it over my rear view mirror with just that bracket
it would be a great spot BUT with my modded overhead console it hangs down another inch or so and you cannt view the whole thing. so ill have to either make another bracket to space it further to the left towards me or just mount it somewhere else. and right now im kinda aiming towards just slapping it ontop of the steering colum or infront of gauges on the bezel. still not positive yet.
