Sounds great. My son asked what's that? I said a truck. He said why does it sound so monsterish?

The PCM died? That sucks!
It is going to sound sooo sweet with a full exhaust. But it does sound pretty "monsterish" right now!

So what happened to the PCM? Did the engine just cut out?

It should be ready by then. Money will just be a factor.

It was a bad grOund that shorted the PCM. So now we have to buy another. It will be at least a week out before it's running again.
