So I ordered a new Gryphon a couple of weeks ago. Got my invoice with tracking # last week claiming a tentative ship of 11/02 and my bank account posted the transaction on 11/03 which, if I understand correctly, means it was shipped because I understood it to be that I wouldn't be charged until it shipped. Problem is that the UPS tracking still shows that it hasn't shipped.

This is worse than being a kid a CHRISTmas. At least then I knew when the payoff would come, .

And this isn't really a complaining thread. I understand workloads all too well and sickness even better. It's a so close, yet, so far away thread.

 

You'll get it soon enough......

 

The UPS thing never did update on mine. It was delivered before UPS showed it leaving Winder.

Have fun when you get it.

88racing, I know but after getting all my questions answered from you now it's hard to wait. I was never good with CHRISTmas either. I would catch the parents gone, open my presents, and then rewrap.

And x2mosg, that's exactly the type of reply I was hoping to read. That other people have had this same problem. Honestly I figured it was a UPS problem and not a PHP problem.

 

I've ordered parts from four different companies in the last month.......2 said they were going to be on a certain date and it was a week or two later when they arrived .....the other 2 I got before the arrival date.....
Shipping is still a crap shoot no matter how technologically advanced it becomes.

I wasn't condoning your post at all......

Shipping is only going to get worse as Xmas is coming...

This might be another reason.......

 

Yeah, I read that and truly hope that I didn't come off as a complainer. I hope Corey takes care of herself.

 

Nope.
You're just excited that's all.....

 

Your gonna love it! Are you going to get any custom tunes?

 

Yep, I am getting a 87 performance custom. Had it done for the exhaust I am getting ready to redo. I'm going from SIDO Flowmaster 40 to a True Dual Magnapack system.

And I'm definitely excited. I'm sure I am going to lose some mpg through the tire upgrade from stock to what I have now and I am hoping the Gryphon gets some of it back.

 

You'll never get great gas mileage with a tuner, you wont be able to keep your foot out of it! Unless you strap a egg to the go pedal!

 

I know you're just kidding, but my MPGs have increased (+1.25 hand calculated) since I installed the CTS (canned tunes).

Still waiting on my custom tunes from PHP, but I doubt I'll see much more of an increase.

 

Still sweet talking my wife before I make my Gryphon CS purchase (doing all the dishes, packing her lunch, telling her "I'm sure you have a headache, let's just go to sleep", etc. ). But seriously, I just installed a Magnaflow si/do system last week, so working on saving back up. The Gryphon is next on my list. SOOOOOOOO jealous of the OP!!!!

 

Yup.. i just took a 9 hour trip back to Florida last weekend, used my 87 perf. custom tune from PHP.. i averaged 20.7 mpg on the way down...not bad for a truck with 137,000 miles on it...

 

Was this per the Gryphon or calculated?

See Big Terp, attack here with the math. Tell her it will pay for itself, lol.
