    yeah, my regular hose comes out pretty hard, but I haven't even done wax yet, just how it came from the dealer. Maybe I'll start there before getting something expensive.

    Here is an example of what can be done.

    Still looks pretty good.

    Nice build. Your truck looks much better without the flares.

    Took a picture at dusk last night.

    Will be ordering a new bumper tomorrow and still waiting patiently for my rock sliders.

    Yeah, the ones it came with were cool, but for actual fog, these work better.

    Found out this is definitely a thing today. Was lining the truck up to sit in the bed and was over a small dry creek. Couldn’t open the tailgate. Didn’t break anything but I can see how this is a problem for sure. On the plus side the tires didn’t rub which was awesome.

    I have been in waiting mode for at least a month now.

    I ordered my rock sliders and new front bumper, but I probably won't even get them until next month. And then I need to get them powder coated.

    Anyway, went up the mountain to hike the other day and got this cool shot.

    You won't regret it. I love having the physical switches and it looks like it was always there.

    Picked up a package from FedEx Freight today. Dropped it off to get powder coated.

    Maybe install next week?

    Rock sliders got installed today. I had a local shop install them. C4 Fabrication.

    Front bumper has been ordered. No idea when that will come in.

    Small upgrade today.

    I noticed last time I was on a night run I couldn't see anything when I dropped something inside my truck.

    So, I upgraded all my interior lighting to LEDs and added a floor kit from VLEDS.COM.

    Oh yah, LEDS in the vanity mirrors too.

    It's so bright it might discourage make up touch up in my truck.

    I totally forgot to post this.

    I got my truck professionally detailed. They got most of the scratches out. Looks so much better. You can see tiny scratches if you look real close, but it's a massive improvement.

    Here is a before and after.

    Like them enough to drop their name? A few of us live in the area and could use a good referral.

    Installed cargo, license plate, and backup light LEDs the other day.

    Why aren't these default?

    Right? Just browse the aftermarket forums like this and add it to the next model. Apple has been doing this for years
