First time it's been out of the garage for 2+ weeks. Clayed, 105'd, 205'd, sealed, waxed and treated all exterior plastics to some CG silk shine. I drove it half a mile to get a Jimmy John's Hunters Club sandwich, returned and put the car back in the garage. Then I ate that glorious sandwich.

#10, Thinny Chips, Diet Coke. That's heaven right there.

So after failing emissions today I got in my car after work to read the codes and realized I still had the 93 octane tune in there. I'm a moron. Put the 87 tune in her and will get some miles on it over the next few days until she passes. I feel like an idiot, but I'm also relieved that that's all it is, and the retest is free.

One of my m80 mufflers blew the baffle out only after a month of use, had to order up another one. Hopefully this isn't a common occurrence.

You trade it in like that, or go back to stock?

This. I need me that grille and them there side splitters. It'd be a shame to give them away to the dealership...Badass truck though, I wish I could convince the wife that she needs a four door truck instead of an SUV.

What difference does octane rating have to do with passing smog? Should be the same regardless of what kind of gas you use.
