Wow! That looks very good!

Now that's just another thing on my list...

They are definitely brighter than the stock 3157 bulbs by maybe 20-30%.
They usually refer to that as "hyperflash" with LEDs. The LEDs are using a lot less power. Therefore there's a sudden drop in resistance. Truck thinks a bulb is out.

You can install some load resistors to eliminate the effect.

I thought this could also be fixed in Forscan

I was wondering if that was what it was called because I've heard the term before. It's really not that annoying to me so I'll probably just leave it be.

Default Utah "Summer Snow"

Visited Utah's version of 'summer snow" yesterday. I have no idea who that lady is, they were doing a photo shoot and asked to "borrow " my truck and took a bunch of photos. That Ruby Red really showed up on the "snow".

Had my resonator deleted, sounds a LOT better than expected. Compliments my Flowmaster Super 10 muffler very well.

Took it back out to the Farm and ran it again tonight. Still with the 35" tires. I think I can get into the 3s with a better launch and smaller tires.

Looks good I did same thing on my Lariat. Color matched mirror caps, front and rear bumper ends.
