Memory seat button for 2 separate drivers. I doubt I'll ever use it.

All i have to say is well played sir dont think anyboby saw that fast ball coming. Build is really shaping up great Drew two thumbs up for sure!!!

It's interesting that two people, having never met each other, can have the same ideas. However your talent allowed you to create what I could only envision.

Guess I've been holding this secret inside for 2 years as well.

As for you gauges. I know you have been working on it but until you reach you solution for a small price you can get an APP for your Ipad called Torque. Then hook a Bluetooth OBDII reader into your diagnostic port (See eBay) and you can have a gauge for anything you want on your IPad.

Thanks to everyone for the kind words and funny comments on the Quadrasteer. It was a lot of fun to see y'alls reactions.

Your interior looks great in the pictures Drewski! I bet it looks even better in real life. How close are you coming to OKC on the power tour?

Thanks Drew, You have any idea what time or how long you't be there? I would like to head up to Stillwater to check out your truck.
If you have some extra time on your busy schedule you're welcome to swing by my place and check out my build.....it's right on your way

Each day the cruisers arrive at the location about noon and pack it in around 6 to 7 at night.

Oh yeah!
We made it here with zero issues, got our credentials, and found a spot to park. This thing is huge with a ton of great cars to look at, but as soon as we pulled up a small crowd formed. I hardly got to walk around - too busy fielding questions. The good news is a Hot Rod photographer already found us. He said he would talk to his editor. We'll see.
