:cheers: Thank you, sir :) I've got a few more changes up my sleeve for it before I'll consider it "done"....at least for a while. The wife loves it so that's the main thing for me. She's threatened bodily harm to me if I replace her Burb with anything else. She knows that I change vehicles very often if left to my own devices so she's constantly paranoid anytime I go off and take pics of it that I'm getting ready to put it up for sale :happy175:

Very true :) I also like the way it drives. Floats down the highway nicely, with the BB tune it's got pretty decent performance considering it's a land yacht and it's comfortable on long trips.

Wow! Molding and rack really make it pop now! Looks great!

I never had a chance to get a BB tune on my '05. Did the tune really make a big difference like everyone says? Did you track any mpg difference after it?

Yes, the BB tune made a HUGE performance difference and I'm extremely happy I did it!! My mpg are almost identical but that is because of how I had Justin tune it. He asked me what I wanted (better efficiency or more performance) and I chose performance because this land yacht was stuck in the muck :lol: The people who've gone for the MPG tune say they get 2 MPG better on the highway over stock.

I'm currently running two tunes. The tune that is always on and then "sport" mode which is activated when I push the tow/haul button. Over stock my "every day" tune is awesome. Throttle response is light years better, acceleration is improved and overall the driving experience is greatly improved. Now let me tell you about the "sport" tune. This thing will plane get after it in "sport" mode!! I've only ran it probably a handful of times in the last year but I'd love to get this thing to the track and run it on "sport" mode. It turns into a whole other animal and just puts a HUGE smile on my face :driver:
