No problem. You have no idea how awesome this program is and the vast amount of info you'd need a $2000 snap on tool to read. I paid $26 shipped for the elm327 Bluetooth obd2 adapter and $5 for app so pretty good for a super scan / engine management system. It's extremely accurate I'm super impressed.

Plug it into your obd2 port. Turn Bluetooth on phone on and pair them . I just hop in my jeep. Put my phone on windshield craddle and as soon as ignition is on they start talking.

Did you setup vehicle profile and enter all the info like gross vehicle weight and all that stuff? If my foot is off pedal its like 19mpg as soon as I put weight on pedal it drops to 15mpg then down from there lol.

Torque is probably the most useful app I've ever purchased.

Bed lined the front grill and inserts. Going to get the body painted on Monday desert tan. Should I paint the inserts to match or leave them black?

Easy. I pulled it all off, washed each part with soap. I then let it dry, and used I used Dupli-Color rattle can bedliner. I sprayed each section individually. It works awesome. Do not get the Rustoleum, it sucks.

$10.86 a can out the door at parts store.

Ehh that's arguable I tried both I found rust oleum to be better the duplicolor is more of that "hammered texture finish" spray paint where as the rust oleum has a finish comparable to 60 grit sand paper.
