I would not believe that statement.

This is what I did to number six with just an EZ pulling 21000 pounds up Afton Mountain WITH NO EGT gauge dude.

Like the guy said earlier, DO YOU FEEL LUCKY, WELL, DO YOU?
Only costed me $10,858.00. Is that lucky?

Ive been driving awhile with a comp on 5x5 and no EGT gauge. See my sig. I sent it in for repair/replacement in january and Email/call every couple weeks no luck.
I dont worry about it. Then again if i drive aggressively it stops once i hit the speed limit and doesnt occur for a couple more minutes, so plenty time to drop temps before the next 'romp'.
No towing, but wouldnt think twice about towing without one either (no hills here!)

Of course, I could take the chip off for the trip, but that would just be silly.

I hate to say this
But here in laredo, and probably everywhere else, people do it all the time, I hear the question of "hey does your truck have a chip?" alot, No it dont have a chip, but it does have a pyro, I know of at least 10 chipped diesels down here in LDO and none of them have a pyro, I also know of a few others that have some mods and a pyro, so its just a matter of whose ignorant as to what EGTs are, and whose not.... Sadly tho, the consequences can be dire for those who are ignorant. But its an expensive lesson learned..
