Huh... imagine that.

I hope a few take note of how easy your life can be when you're proactive, instead of reactive!
LOL!!

When I sense the wife is going to ask me to do the dishes I miraculously find some time to do the chores I have on my lifetime to-do list.
Those other guys that you pointed out are the lucky bastards that are either single or bribed the Dr for some free ticket off the kitchen

I hit a deer with my old Tacoma. Had the insurance company write the check to me so I could do the repair and used it to purchase a steel winch bumper instead of replacing all the plastic parts. A month later I hit another one and it just bounced under the truck.

All depends on your state. Iowa you can request a check and fix it however you want.

Well, not today but over the long weekend. Keep knocking things off the to-do list, while adding even more to it.

Removed the FX4 decals from the bed
Installed a Chinese ordered eBay Raptor Grille
Wired up the LED's in the after market Raptor Grille
Gave the truck a good wash, still need to clean all the glass on it.

To Do Items Added:
Install Reverse Light addition
Install light bar
Ordered OTRATTW switches
Fabricate holder for switches
Order replacement light bulbs for all fixtures on exterior

I have these saved on Amazon but the 2 things that have halted my purchase is the heated seats still working well and fitment. But from your pictures, they seem to fit great!
That's a question I've wanted to ask for years.
I've wanted decent covers every time, but usually go with some type of cheap nylon breathable covers as I'm literally not comfortable with the heat building up underneath another material.
Also what used to be cooled, is now ventilated.. Either way I still like a cool breeze during the summer.
So yeah, choices are few, in my opinion.

I've got the Katzkin leather from the dealer as part of the leather and liner program. It takes longer for the heat to get through the seat from the heated seats since it is a thicker material. It also doesn't feel quite as warm to my wife (I don't use the heated seats) as compared to her 2015 Edge.

I would say that is a good explanation, I have heated grips on my motorcycle and if i wear gloves it takes longer to feel the heat and its not as warm.
