Went and got the truck today after having the GPS system put in. Had a driver in the car with me to put him in the truck and then I see it wasn't running right and black smoke was coming out of the stack. So in the shop it went. First real problem I've had with the truck since warranty ended.

Anyway from my laptop I can zoom in and see on Google maps where the truck is, speed, trail etc. But I paid extra and got the PerfromX cable and this is the first report I generated from my laptop:

The fuel average was horrible but probably cause it was burning fuel. Pretty amazing this thing though. This truck had a new ECM installed before I bought it so I guess that's why it has so few miles on the ECM.

Here's some more info I pulled off. It looks better on the screen but to copy and paste it isn't as nice. Once I get the truck going I will post more of these. The guy didn't put on the trailer skirt like he was supposed to but even better cause now I can run it and then put it on and then see if the change is obvious. Any other things anyone would like me to try let me know.
