Let us know, we all wanna know.
I've gotta replace most of those little sensors and stuff if I ever get ahead on money. With the price of gas and girlfriend that never happens.

That was one reason why I mentioned it as well. The first time I delt with "bucking" I was told about the map sensor being bad. I went to the "know how" parts store and bought one. Installed it and my truck was "bucking" worse. Took it to a shop and they put it on their computer and analyzed all the sensors. Sure enough my "new" map sensor was completely out of range. Took it back and tried to get my money back (they wouldn't do it cause it was "installed"), then went to O'Reilly and got another one. Problem solved. They can be bad out of the box. Like I said this is only my experience with these trucks bucking. I really hope this helps.

When you do maybe the price of gas won't be so bad cause you'll be using less and then the girlfriend will benefit.

So you are telling me to buy a part that might not even work! How dare you!
Just kidding man, I have multiple parts trucks I could pull stuff from to check to see if this gets better or worse, but it's never given me enough trouble to care.
It does get really annoying when someone pulls out of a stop light good n slow and I'm stuck halway through the intersection revvin the **** outta my truck, or hopping around like a hooker on a.. nevermind.

It sounds like your paying for the extra freight to get the Chinese parts out to the Midwest where I'm at.

I was just looking for one on the advanced site and got really scared cause the only one they had was 90 bucks, then I remembered the last truck I was looking for parts for was my dads 250 haha.
Cost 35-40 here too.

It took us almost 8 hours to get to the jersey beach last time we were there.
Advanced wants 40, napa wants 70 and autozone wants 45.
Rockauto wants like 28, but I don't know if I'd trust it since they can be bad from the start.

All kidding aside I know how you feel. I lived in Hawaii for three years and nothing was cheap except for sugar, macadamia nuts, and pineapple.
