Been lurking here in Northern VA

Post by Poke » Wed Jan 12, 2022 5:38 pm

Glad to be here, there's tons of good info I have already found. Picked up my brand new 2019 for a steal at the beginning of the pandemic. Timing, prior year leftover, and desperation for a sale got me a deal I couldn't refuse.

Installed AMP Power steps, muffler delete, 35*12 Open Country RT's, new drop tow hitch, and a pedal commander.

Not looking to make it any taller as I need to be able to fit in parking garages, but definitely want to bullet proof suspension and steering for ride quality and longevity. Also brakes need some help and looking into rotor, line, and pad combos for that.

Only problem I have had is with the Pedal Commander when it rains. As soon as the first drop hits the windshield, my throttle goes all bipolar...fast...slow...fast..slow. I have to set it to City and 0 so as to smooth it out. Still trying to figure that out. Hopefully I can find some answers here.
