no; from the first start up.
I did not write it correctly.
When i got the car, it had 7 miles on it. on off lines, trucks, moved around; i don't know. So, Gary and I drove around a couple of blocks, and the charger did not 'engage' (?)
So, when we headed back to the dealer, the dealer dude did a check, and at the first start up, it needs 5 consecutive miles for a 'breakin' period.
While i was doing the title stuff, gave Gary the keys, and told him to figure it out. He came back several minutes/miles later, and told us the exact second the charger 'registered' the first 5 consecutive miles! He wasn't prepared for it; took him by surprise. It absolutely kicked in, and wow, he said it was great!! I don't remember now; first 5 consecutive miles, or after 5 or something key starts. It's a break-in procedure.
have tested it a couple of times already. Works great!

is that clearer??
Put about 60 miles on it.
tonight have stacked the mustang over Pepe. (since i load the trailer and leave for Austin on Thursday, went ahead and put gus on top)
The Shelby is in the '65 mustang's old spot. the lift worked well, and all is well. wow that lift thing is scary!
g'nite, going to bed!
