Wasn't today but it was this week, I removed the useless chrome side step/tube things, washed it for the first time since I bought it the beginning of March and started removing water spots from the passenger side windows. Also changed the reverse bulbs to super bright LED ones and did an oil change. Hopefully getting the A/C recharged this week and in the next week or so I'll be changing the front and rear diff fluid and transfercase fluid.

If I get less than 14 I assume something is very, very wrong - or in the case of my last trip where I got 14.3 it was because only 87 octane was available out west. Premium was very rare.
So your floor of 14mpg is around town? You driving like a Prius owner?

Chemical Guys Water Spot Remover. Works amazing you just have to make sure to use it in the shade on cool glass, otherwise it will dry too fast and makes it hard to remove.

Thinking it's time to hit the trail soon, going to go to the Daniel Boone National forest in a couple weeks. So time for the Goodyears to go on the rack for a bit.



Time for the 33x12.50 MT's to come out of hibernation

Love the DBBB. Look for 'hell for certain creek' "road". Shocking what passes as a road.


Have fun - truck looks great 👍
