Oh yeah, I forgot!! If you dont set the Gtech level with respect to the
truck and the ground, you can get false measurements. Wanna go faster, set
the rear of the Gtech down, wanna go slower, set the rear of the Gtech up,
only problem is I dont think it will work if is isnt very close to level
becuase the Gtech it self wont allow it to run...
