One of the other things to note is that California is going to nail you on sales tax. Yep, even though you bought it in another state. That's one of the primary reasons I'm not about to register our rig in Cali. I'll have to drop all the CA ID - residence, license, etc....but it'll be worth it...

Hmmm...more and more tempting. I wonder how well they work with the Duonic, if at all? Just sent Steinbauer USA an email, I'll post up whatever they reply with.

Subbing to this thread, I'd like to learn more about that module, and what the issues are. Once my truck is out of warranty, I might be interested enough to drop one in. Oh, and I can verify that the FUSO bus language can't be read by a regular OBDII module.

Someone that might be interesting in tackling a very custom trailer build? Will be a tandem axle dropside flatbed tailored for use behind a Fuso FG. I've been trying to deal with a shop up in Oregon but I just cut them loose after trying to get a quote for the last five weeks. I'm looking for...

Interesting, I haven't heard about that. I do know that there are some mods for colder weather, such as heaters to keep the DEF fluid enough. My truck was originally a plow truck in Colorado, only has the heated mirrors and a few heat pads on the engine oil pan and transmission. But then...

Sorry to hear that, D - GLWS, it's a nice rig.

Don't know if a 2008 crosses over, but it might. If it does, I can either dropbox it to you, or zip it and send it to you. Bah, just checked it, it's the FE manual.

Now that's an interesting item. I'd also be curious to hear how well it works in the real world.

Hmmm...what wheels are you using? The 24 bolt HMMWV wheels are relatively inexpensive, if you want to either recenter them, or run an adaptor.

I think much of that answer will depend on your area. For us, it's worthwhile to actually relocate out of California a bit sooner than we thought we would. The offset from sales tax fees, insurance and other costs will pay for a nice little plot of land that I'll be modifying into an RV camping...

Yep, I'll be there again. Not with FG though, and I'll more than likely be camping on the Westerly ridge (I learned my lesson last year) and riding a small motorcycle back and forth. Looking forward to seeing everyone there!

:)

Might be a possibility we'll swing by, but don't know if the build will be done by then. We'll just have to see.....

Terrific, enjoy the trip, and I'll probably stop by to bother you at the expo :D, but then again I pay in beer.

Hopefully the Head Scribe is logging all of these.....:D

Well, you gotta cough up the dough for something that's "highly performance" :rolleyes:

Haven't seen that G-Scan reader, interesting. Might be worthwhile looking into that system. I can definitely say that the earlier MUTS-III systems don't work on the later trucks, no matter what the sellers say. Even for the earlier trucks, the MUTS system PC needs some tweaking to run the SW...

the MUTS is going to be one of the things in the toolbox. As you say, if you're planning on heading up to the Far North...pack well. 2012's can access OBD codes (at least some), but I'm pretty sure that you're not able to erase all fault codes, especially ones that'll cause limp mode. For those...

Glad to see you post here, Vincent. So...about that 2 speed xfer for the Duonic trucks........:coffee:

Interesting. I'd like to find out exactly what was going on...I'll look into this further when I get home. I wonder if the trucks in question missed out on the new software updates?
