    Quick Question ( TCM )

    @FORDF250HDXLT Just to be sure that I am reading this correctly, You think that the one I posted could be up to date with the 1994 model, and that I should check to be sure of that. If it were you doing this, what would you do? I hope that I am not bothering you, I am kind of new to this.
