W.T.F gas buck ten a LT.

Petro Canada station had reg gas at a buck ten a lt, has nothing to do with the Calgary Stampede...Now the Hemi needs mid grade...two weeks ago gas was 95 cents a lt...crazy...Now the Ram and the 04 F-150 are close in mileage per LT, but the price of gas sucks....

Over 3.50 US for a gallon of reg...

You really sound shocked over this. Gas has been bouncing between .80 and $1.20/liter for two years now. The time for complaining is over, if you want to drive you gotta pay!

^^I agree^^
today it's $1.18 and hasn't been below $1.00 here in probably a year and I've given up caring. In fact I just put premium in for kicks (and to try level 3 on my Edge)

Sure do. I organized that massive group buy in December for it.
I haven't been able to do any fine tuning or any performance runs on the performance tune yet but 94 Octane and an extra 1.5* timing (the only setting I adjusted so far) sure does feel good. There's definately a huge improvement between stock and level 2 and between 2 and 3
A tuner is almost mandatory and the Edge has all the goodies (which I'm sure you've read before.) Of course the XCal2 should always be a consideration as well.
Maybe one day I'll let you try it out. PM me or send an email.

Just so I haven't completely derailed this thread, the Edge gave me an exta 2-3 MPG

how the hell did i miss that group by? i guess i was so infatuated with my harley grille that i wasn't paying attention. what did it end up costing you in canadian dollars? i'd love to get one. i just went to vancouver and back in my truck and man it was a dog on some of those hills. kia's were passing me for god's sake!! and i could use the extra mpg too

I don't remember. $3xx. I got free shipping for organizing the group buy but of course had to pay $50-ish GST/PST on it.
Did you want to try it out?

wow that's a great price. i priced out a superchips tuner at lordco and they want $500 for it. i can't believe i missed that group buy. i'd LOVE to try it out if you don't mind. i can't guarantee i'll give it back though! when and where do you want to get together? the evenings are better for me cause i'm home with my daughter during the day. i could come to your place or we could meet somewhere, whatever. let me know.
