Think of Pegasus as the interface between your computer and the Gryphon. Like the previous poster mentioned, it is the way you add custom tunes to and update the firmware on your Gryphon. And by the way, level 3 uses 91 octane, not 93 (unless you're in Canada).

Posttal, as the previous two members said, Pegasus is an application you install on your PC to update firmware in the Gryphon (if necessary) and to install your custom tunes when they are written. You can download Pegasus, the User Manual and 64-bit drivers (if needed) from PHP's website here: http://dygytalworld.ehost-services13...p/Support.html

You won't really need it until your custom tunes are ready.

Thanks..I downloaded it this morning.Although I dont have the custom tune yet I think I am going to use it to change the start up picture with the one that shows the ford logo and f-150 under it.It pretty much matched the start up screen picture I put on my Navigation screen.

You're welcome! Those are nice pictures in your album, by the way. Did your Wife do some of the work, like the stitching on the headrests?

We do at home embroidery..I should say she does it and I dabble in it.We both work so called real jobs..me as a mechanic for the post office and Lori for Kaiser hospital.But we started making t-shirts and hats for a friend that runs a inner city mission..we made free t-shirts for the kids as give aways..and over the past 10 years thru motorcycle clubs and car clubs we belong to and have expanded a bit by word of mouth.We do headrest for Mallette corvette,logos for the cleveland police FOP union,blue knights motorcycle club,rolling thunder, american crusers,V-twin cruisers,and ever outlaw biker clubs like the zulu's and angle's.Lori teaches embroidery classes via the internet all over the world backed by Seierra software one of the largest embroidery software companies in the world..and I just do things that look neat for my personal pleasure.I try to keep it on the downlow due to time restraints but I like to show off,and when people inquire about my stuff I offer to do it for them too......can I interest you in a set.
If by chance any one is interested check out my site at http://www.lorileedesigns.com/files/...phsCorner.html
or the wifes site at http://www.lorileedesigns.com
Take a peek at some of my toys and animals..like most guys I like to show off a bit.

Again..Thanks
I appreciate the kind words.

No, I need to save my pennies, but I do leatherwork too (Celtic designs mostly) and I appreciate good work when I see it.

Not me! But, the hard part in the King Ranch is matching the Castano leather. It's got a totally unique look. What I'd love to do in my truck is replace the "pleather" over the instrument cowl and on the door panels. Then, I'd probably replace all the "plastic woodgrain" with leather too.
