I look forward to picking one up when they are available again. Hope to have on in place before my planned trip to the PNW next summer.

The hose shop emailed me today, they said the end of next week, which actually means the beginning of the following week.

Just opened the box. Looks like it was made by a major company with a huge team of people and top notch logistics (packing).

Very impressed.

Part of me is afraid to see how much fluid my trans has been running on. Dealership "checked it" when I complained of problems.. said it was fine and the trans was acting normal. Me getting the fill cap off should prove if they did that or lied about it.

Man I hope I am included in that next group. I have no idea where I am with the numbers and have said I am ok with it…but the more I read about the install, the less ok I am with waiting.

Someone else said this a while ago, but I'm going to steal it - I think this product should be renamed the "FitzStick" - the dipstick that should have come from the factory!

When I finally took out the factory dipstick, it was a joke. Between where it is, and how small it is, it is effectively useless.... The FitzStick on the other hand is INCREDIBLY useful!

Rob, I started it, say it & use all you want & will join you. Mine has not arrived yet but the more I am reading I'm glad I didn't wait longer to order. ?

You won't be disappointed. I'm still amazed at what Mike did with this. Once you are able to install it you will see what I mean. The attention to detail is incredible and the quality is top notch. It truly does look like it came from the factory with it.

I noticed that great youtube video on the MBS dipstick install has been taken down, too bad unless their was some liabillity issue.
