Was gonna wash it....
But said screw it and took the bike out instead.




It was a bit breezy today, so I manage to try out my flagpole.
Worked as expected, not bad for free.




Then came home and drove the truck over to meet a buddy to pick up some firewood.
But turned out they were small crabapple trees and didn't even fill the back of his truck.
So, the F-150 was just along for moral support.
As we finished loading the wood in his truck it started pouring rain.
Made me feel pretty good about not washing it earlier. lol

I use the edge of a paper towel to wick the water from those spots no more water running down the paint leaving spots.

Been wanting to change the blue oval to a darker tone to match the truck. Ordered them in the winter. Finally got nice enough weather to replace them today.

I’ll use a leaf blower to simulate driving down the road at 120 mph. Takes water out of places you don’t realize get water

I just realize from the post above mine I need to change the center caps on the wheels as well. Just ordered those from them as well.

Stained my under-seat enclosure. Wanted to go red to match my red accents. I used unicorn spit and stained the entire enclosure. Then I took off the edges and did a sand over the entire enclosure till it was distressed to my liking. I wanted a rustic rat rod distressed feel. Then cleared it with some lacquer spray. Won't be for everyone but I dig it!
