Congrats on getting an E-Trac! Now remember what I told you about using it in Illinois. \:hammer: lol

Mine came with the Andy Sabisch book too. To be honest, that book seems to be geared towards people transitioning from an Explorer to an E-Trac, and I found it to be of limited use when I first got my E-Trac. The book made a lot more sense to me after I had used my E-Trac in the field for a couple of months.

However, the thread that CyberSage linked to above is pure gold for a new E-Trac user, or even a seasoned one! thumbsup01

I totally concur with Tony about Andy's book. Read through it but put some time on the E-Trac and then go back and read it again and you will start to understand some of the stuff Andy is saying. Watch a lot of videos in particular the ones that feature seasoned E-Trac users.
