But it’ll make you feel better when you see the frame. Haha.

Hit it with some black woolwax. That’ll make it look nice, cover rust and protect.

EXCITING! Let me know how the Kickers sound I was looking at those same speakers but haven't pulled the trigger... afraid to cut into wiring to modify speakers

I already have like 10 cans of original Fluid Film in the garage LOL so I don't really need to buy any more cans of it!

Crutchfield will usually include adapters to avoid cutting up factory wiring.

Picked up a mini SD card at WallyWorld for my new dash cam. Got tired of it announcing a card wasn’t installed every time I started the truck and then repeated a second time a couple minutes later. Went to the pay & spray car wash after, road salt & dust sure gets ugly.

Work was a little short on spots today, So I made the off-sized one work for me. (if you pull into this spot, you can never get out due to cars in front of you)

What's with your tailgate? Is that one of those optical illusion prints that hide something?

It's my go-to vinyl wrap from 3M (Dark Shadow Camo). The tailgate had a toooon of small chips all over it from the previous owner. It looked like a snow scene. So shortly after purchasing the truck; I wrapped it all.

Can see it here a little better; some is on my tail light too.
