Like i said earlier, its like crying wolf. Save the emergency titles for the guys and gals that are actually needing help ASAP. If he was selling the truck tomorrow than yeah, maybe post it, but like he said, he's buying it and doesnt even have it! How is that an emergency? Just sayin, keep the titles accurate. Im kind of surprise a moderate didnt say something.

he is correct, Red = 5hp, other colors are only 3hp.
Yes, but still don't have to be a bitch about it and just tell him don't scream at him or talk smack about him.

Really? So we promote being drama queens now? Mmmkay.
LMAO.

Heat it up, pull it off and use goo gone. Should work..

dont forget the stick on vents. Those are worth 3hp a piece. If you're looking for torque, put some product decals all over the paint job, I hear those give a good 2 lbs of torque each.

1700-1800 rpm at 70-72 is dang good. I'm running a little over that..

What size tires do you have?

15mpg could be possible since your running under 2k rpm.
