    Sounds great David.

    Looking to see the write up on the black Excursion. What better way to break it in than a big black truck.

    Congrats.

    Have you checked with Griot's to see if they would replace the RO under warranty?

    The info I provide below should take care of this...
    Dear Jomax...Per our conversation on 03.09.2013:
    Go ahead and send me your GG6 for "repair".

    Thanks.

    Your close-personal-friend,

    Never did, figured i was at fault, not Griots. I could try though. The thing still runs.. sometimes... i cracked the bottom housing when i dropped it. When it decides to run, sparks come out of it along with a burning smell, even smokes a bit....

    It'll get a work out. I have the excursion, year 2000 was never buffed. I have my truck, Swirled out BAD(long story) then I have a 38ft 5th wheel that I will be using it for the polishing step. All hopefully this Month...
