Fits perfectly.. Seat down just barely touches the top of it... Comes with a strip of velcro I attached to the little storage compartment that holds it in place from sliding around. Works good.

Finally took the time to go to my tire shop to take care of a slow leak, 1# a week, in my rear driver tire. It was leaking the same last summer but I installed winter tires on separate wheels. When I put the factory all season tires on this spring, none of them were low pressure. Then, in use and flexing, leaked at about 1#/week. Our several gas stations with free air are usually inconveniently parked in around the air station. Finally got tired of going to two or more stations to top off the tire.
Turns out it was a small thin furniture staple, thinner than many sewing needles.
It was always a concern while towing my travel trailer.
About to go over 40,000 miles on them, I think I can get at least another two summers out of them since I have winter treads.

Had some Bridgestone Blizzak DM-V2s mounted on my winter wheels to replace my Hakkapeliitta R3s. I loved the Nokians, but I started pricing them and every quote I got was nearly $100/tire more than the Bridgestones. I figure with a 4WD truck, the 2nd best winter tire should be plenty.
It's early, but I just wanted it done.

Cleaned the AIT2 sensor. Had some oily crud built up on it so I cleaned it carefully with a toothpick and MAF cleaner.

Took the truck with the new engine in it for the first time up to the cabin since December. Got 21.5 mpg but, 1/4 of the drive was 75 to 85 mph on the interstate to keep up with traffic. Rest was 65 mph or less. With the old engine I got around 25 mpg but, I didn't have to run the interstate at those speeds before. Traffic was moving today. Did good. No new rattles from the cab being removed. I think waiting for the tech with 30 years of experience paid off.

Changed the plugs in my Coyote. 100,000 miles and they didn't look too bad. Everything went smoothly with the exception of the #4 cylinder. Unhooked the harness, pulled the coil, and went to install the new plug. Wouldn't thread in. After several attempts, I used my phone to look in the hole and discovered I forgot to pull out the old plug! LOL. All I have to say it's hell getting old!
