nah, ive always been like this
youre right, though. im sure its not completely accurate from the factory; i know so many people with a factory tach in their gauge cluster, and then an aftermarket tach right on the steering wheel. i mean, this is on some "crazier" cars that friends own, but theres a reason for it.
the thing is, when im at a red light, itll sit at 600 rpms, and once in a while, itll dip down to 500 for, like, 2 - 3 seconds - not often, but i do see it sometimes, so thats something i wanna look into.
at first, after the accident, i wanted to give up on vehicles, but then, i did a total 180. im not just back to my old ways of playing with vehicles, but i really wanna take care of all that crap on/in my truck that has always bothered me - even all those little rattles and vibrations. believe it or not, poking around with some free time on a saturday afternoon yielded more stuff that i expected, heh. if the idle is low, fine, as long as the truck runs good; im finally gonna mount those switched like alphasylum has and run my radar detector to them; im gonna make a really nice gasket for my superchip to keep moisture out; cd changer with mp3 capability; cargo liner (nice one); new windshield (i have stone chips in it, decent sized ones); spekerphone setup for my cell phone, blah blah blah, i could go on for hours with all the crap i wanna do - nothing major, just a TON of little stuff.
wow, i really just typed a lot; i didnt mean to stray from the idling thing, heh.
