Hi, please sign me up for the list. Thanks.

I decided to take the plunge and buy the mongoose, so you can take me off the list. Thanks.!

I figured it would go fast.

Hello all,

I am not sure if this will take off or not, but I wanted to start a thread to help members who want to get their trucks updated without having to spend hundreds of dollars buying the Mongoose to do so. I am going to be lending out my Mongoose to anyone and everyone who wants to take these update issues into their own hands and get their truck righted.

The process will be as follows: You send me $500 via Zelle, Paypal or Cashapp where we don't have to be worried about fees. I will ship the Mongoose to you via USPS insured for $500 jic. You update your truck, and send it back to me also insured for $500. Once I receive it and verify the serial number is the same and it works, you will get $475 (more or less) refunded to you to cover the costs of shipping the item to you. I am not doing this for profit; I am doing this to allow everyone a chance to drive the truck they paid for.

FULL DISCLOSURE: I am not a technician. I am not a software engineer. I am not an FDRS expert. AT ALL. I am a car salesman. I can offer my help and guidance with the process to the best of my ability. Myself as well as this forum is more than enough of a resource for you to be able to do this. Before you ask me to ship it to you, make sure you have a minimum 20amp battery power supply to leave on your truck the entire time. Make sure you have a 32GB + flash drive freshly formatted to exFAT. Make sure you have enough time to get all the updates done using the 2-day FDRS license you will need to do it. Read the first post of the thread linked below and if you feel you are up to it, post here and we'll set it up.

If you want to borrow it, post here as opposed to sending me a PM. First person to post gets it first, second to post gets it second, etc. If there is a lot of demand for the Mongoose, and any other members want to do the same with their Mongoose, let me know and we'll coordinate accordingly.

** There are a few other members here that are willing to lend theirs out. You can reach out to them directly as my waiting list will most likely be longer than theirs. These members are:

@Cnixon
@indiana-f150
@imnuts
@BarryT82
@JScaro
@nitrobass24
@m_bt54

If you're in Canada: @jflottawa and @yikes and @cheesedogf150 live there and has one they can rent out to you. Contact him directly for details.

I'd like to get in line to borrow your mongoose please. Thanks, Brent

I would like added to the list to borrow a cable please. I am located in South Central Indiana

 

[AdamBGoldy]

It appears my name was removed from the list for some reason. Would it be possible to get my same spot back in line?

Not sure what happened, but I'll add it back on. List is short now anyway, so it won't be long.

Hey,

If you want to add me to this for Canada, I have ordered a Mongoose cable and I want to help the group. I will start sending it out as soon as I have updated my truck.

I have a Google form for anyone who wants to borrow it.

We actually need to make a sub thread for Canadians. Could admin perhaps do this?
I’m sure lots of people would be interested.

Added your name to the OP....thanks.

The problem is that most people (particularly new members) will have trust issues sending a $500 deposit to a perfect stranger from the internet for one of these things. In my case and the case of a few others here who have established a reputation on the forum, it makes it easier for someone to trust the process. many other people in the US have volunteered to loan out their Mongooses and their user names are on the OP, but very few times (if any) has anyone reached out to them for a Mongoose.

That being said, if anyone is in the Ottawa area and wants to stop by with a few beers, I'm sure we can play with software in my driveway.
