    Zoom calls are the best to play "Last man standing". You know there is a pool when some of the Brady Bunch/Hollywood Squares go dark within seconds of each other.

    A slice of American cheese, a slice of provolone (a couple of pieces of shaved Black Forest ham too, if you aren't a "purist"), topped with another slice of American makes an amazing grilled cheese. You may thank me later.

    I took a screen shot of my coworker's screen/background during a big call and photoshopped myself into the background as if I were a kidnapping victim with a sign "Send Help!". I flashed it as my background briefly before we were about to take a break. A bunch of my coworkers lost their shit, half the squares went black instantly.

    Do you think the RCI folks are reading this and laughing? I think so.

    Hey RCI - how about some bolt on extensions to cover our cats? Tundras.com group buy.

    If RCI sucks, then I have to take the sticker off my shell's window. It's been on there for a while, so when I take it off, it'll leave that residual ghosting I've read about. I'm not sure what to do now.

    I put a "disclaimer" on there! Plus, "Grilled" & "Cheese" are in the title so technically it's still a grilled cheese. It just has an upgrade. Like the grilled cheese is a "SR5" and the grilled cheese with ham is a "Limited".

    That's the Platinum edition "Grilled Cheese." If you add aged cheddar, it's a "1794".

    A "Pro" grilled cheese would have the crust removed and cost $5.00 more.

    The Pro would have gourmet pickles at the front to give it a lift, but most would just replace them anyway.

    Sucks because I’ve had nothing but great customer service interaction with RCI, CaliRaisedLED and Rooftop overland. With CaliRaised they only shipped the side panels to my in bed molle system and when I called and left a voicemail over the weekend by Monday before they even responded back I had a new shipping notification for the front molle panel with a bunch of extra hardware. And with RCI I had no issues with my rack. My experience was on the opposite end of OPs spectrum. But if OP isn’t satisfied I’m down to zelle him to buy that skid off of him

    Little known fact: An undercover police officer can be exposed by asking him what he’d like on his grilled cheese sandwich. There was a typo in the narc manual back in the 70’s and they never fixed it.

    Don't let a kid out smart you.
    OHHHH nooo. your SKID plate which is designed to be scratched and is UNDER your truck is scratched. What a tragedy. The missing hardware sucks though. you're allowed to complain about that.

    The condition of the shipping box has more to do with the carrier than the manufacturer. That doesn't matter, you aren't installing the box.

    If hardware is missing I'm sure you can call them up, don't be a dick, and they'll send you a hardware package right away. That happens a lot. I bought a table at Harbor Freight and found the hardware was half missing, called then and got resolve immediately, went on with my life.

    As far as the scratches, live with it. It doesn't matter at all. Its going to get scratched, you're going to be hitting it with paint to keep it from rusting, its an item that takes abuse and bares the scars.

    Now, accusing those who saw this as not a big deal "rci defense team" or "cute dogs" tells us all that RCI isn't the problem. You've got your own royal expectations and you get irrational when they aren't met. Get therapy, get a puppy, get rid of your truck and buy a sports car. Whatever it takes, but get help.
