I guess that 9 month thing is just to worry the hell out of people. LOL.
So far this has been a very plesant experience. Now let's just hope it gets here before I go out of town next Tuesday.

If I can't get rid of the TM in my truck within about another month, I'm selling it. The TM on my truck is horrendous. As much as I am skeptical of Dodges, I may end up getting one. Don't really like the new Ford's so they're out for me. I had an 01 Chevy Z71 that I had modded and also had done an aftermarket stereo system, and thought that the 05's wouldn't be much different aside from the body change. I can't even change out the stereo without needing adapters, and I've also read that the Predator might have problems loading because of aftermarket stereos(It's even on Diablosports website under the tech info area). Just venting a little frustration here.

Personally though I wouldn't trade my truck for anything right now, well maybe a moped, but that's only while I'm filling the tank. LOL.

hell for the same price as you payed for the predator you can order a nelson custom tune. i speak from experience now i have a 400+ scan tool. i wish i would have just ordered a nelson in the beggining. but you will like the predator it helped my truck out quite abit. also dont turn the tranny setting all the way up and expect the tranny to last long

When it gets wet, the truck thinks its in the 40s outside, so the computer tells me I do not need A/C, even though it's actually almost 90 outside. Of course dealer can not duplicate. LOL.

I just left a message at the vendor to either call me with a guarantee that it will be updated within 2 weeks, or I will be sending it back for a full refund.
I emailed a custom tuner and he wasn't able to get his tool to read my VIN.

It's like my 300C all over again. All kinds of visual mods, but nothing performance-wise(well, I have a Magnaflow and Volant, but I feel they haven't amounted to anything). My butt meter says they didn't do squat for the truck but make it louder.
Good luck on getting your sensor deal fixed. I hate it when I'll get that 'could not duplicate customer concern'. Hopefully, they'll eventually get it.
I had a whistling noise between 45-65 mph. Took it in twice. The second time they ended up by process of elimination, taping up all the gaps in the front end. Turned out to be the foglights. Wind was getting in between the light and the housing and causing the whistle.

They rang the door bell to see if anyone was there and than just took it. I could only imagine that they had a good story IF someone did answer the door.. but tht takes some *****.. to steal 5 boxes which on average were like 40-45lbs each. People will do anything for a few bucks.. well in their case.. they sold it on ebay for a "few" $1400... could have bought some lt's and a good tune with that.. damn theives!!

Think about it. You work how hard to make money in the first place? and then some ******* steals your ****? Death sentence right there. We're not talking about someone stealing food to feed thier kids, we're talking about punk *** little bitches who need to get thier asses kicked from one end of this planet to the other.
