On another note, which actually supports some of your claims, I've been averaging about 15.8 per tank the past few months, but now that the temps are up I'm averaging 17.3 which is similar to what I was getting when I got the truck last fall. It's still to early for me to make claims, but that's just what I'm seeing now.

How are those mpg's now Pat?
Not much new data since my trip to San Antonio, most of my driving has been short trips in town(1-5 miles). I have a trip to Virginia planned for July though. I hope to have the Livernois tuner by then but if not I may swing by their shop on my way home from Virginia and pick it up in house.

Good deal. That would be a nice little addition to your trip. I bet there are some awesome machines in there to take a peak at. As soon as you get it you'll be mad at yourself you waited so long. Like I've said before, best money I've spent on my truck. If I didn't have a Livernois tuned Eco, I'd probably be back in a diesel. Don't know if you saw too, but they have a new Version of the tune that sounds even better based off of Boost Limited's review. Patiently waiting for that guy......

No, we go a week or two before Floyd Fest. My brother has a campground in Willis called "Daddy Rabbit's" and he rents every camp site during FF and is to busy taking care of his customers. Our cousin, Rory Block played at Floyd Fest a couple years ago and said it was a lot of fun.
