Th Edge is fine. I use the gauges to monitor the trans temp and coolant temp when I'm towing.
Can't say I noticed much of a power increase with this or the Superchips but I don't "hot rod" my truck. Can certainly feel the transmission shifts though after a couple months they seem to dwindle but could partly be due to the PCM learning period.
Radar detectors are wonderful. Don't go the cheap route if you're going to get one, make sure to research. A good detector will cost $200-300 but that is cheap at the price of a ticket or two. I've had this one for 6 years now (Beltronics 955) so it's due to be replaced. The newer models don't detect different bands but their detection distance has been improved, they have false detection learning and also can point out direction of the detection.
Knock on wood I've never received a ticket.

I'm loving the log! I just replaced all the coil packs and spark plugs on mine, and next is up grading the steering components!

Had a brake flush done last weekend. Definitely needed, my fluid exchange didn't get it all out even after multiple changes.
Good luck with the steering components. Let me know if you have any questions.

They were nice. Wish I didn't sell them.
