And I was Michael Max Fisher, but he stole my name so I readopted Max

Always a catch, ok, so I'll gain some more weight to get those lug nuts tight (only need another 200 or so).  and who was it that was going to barbque?  I'll get started practicing pealing out/off the backing on those stickers Mike better send me some practice stickers  Don't worry DriVer, I'll make everyone proud.

I just picked up my coach after having Redlands Truck Service install the Ultrapower programming, new Taylor/Ultrapower Ignition Wires and regap the spark plugs to .045 plus other warranty work.
It is about 55 miles back home from Redlands and I just cannot believe the difference in the power when pulling the hills.
I'm extremely pleased with the folks at Redlands truck Service especially Keith, K.C. and Carol who all went out of their way to get my coach done and back to me.
If your looking for great service I highly recommend them.
No I did not nor will I recieve anything for plugging them just want others to know where to get the best service.
Isn't that what we all want and need?
I'll give a better update on the overall performance in a couple weeks after our trip.
Again my thanks to everyone at Redlands Truck Service, especially Keith who went out of his way to let me pickup my coach today.
Butt Dyno is absolutely unbelievable.

Just returned from our 1st trip of the year. It was from NH to Myrtle Beach, where we had the UP Upgrade done. Then it was on to Florida and back to NH for a total of 2983 miles. Normally we tow and use the generator when needed for AC. MPG without adjusting for generator seems to fall between 6.8 and 7.2. My habit is to refuel every 250 to 300 miles. Gives me a break and the $ shock is less.
This trip was without a toad. Generator use from NH to Myrtle Beach was approx 3 hrs. From Myrtle to FL and back to NH the generator was used approx 17 hrs. Some use ¾ others ½ gal adjustment per hour of use. I split the difference and used 5/8 gal per hour.
Pre Upgrade: 972.2 miles / 118.875 gal(adjusted) = 8.178 mpg. Route taken was primarily RT 95. No unusual delays or weather problems. (Side note: Not having traveled without a toad for who knows how long, we were pleasantly surprised at the mpg's)
Post Upgrade: First thing I noticed was the smoothness in acceleration from a start. Also noticeable was how when going up an incline OD didn't kick in as soon as it did before. Thus far I haven't experienced the gas savings others have had. From Myrtle Beach to my last fueling in MA we've gone 1938.7 miles used 259.791 gals (adjusted for generator) which = 7.46 mpg. Return route was different. RTs 95 – 26 – 77 – 81 – 78 – 287 – 95. No unusual delays however for a couple of days I was fighting 15 to 20 knot winds.
Been told mpg improved with time and distance. My next long trip will be Branson and I'll be towing so that will be my next big test.
