    I recently went on an 8 day vacation and my father in law asked if he could borrow my truck. I asked him why since I knew he didn't have any real need for it. He said he wanted to detail it for me while I was gone.

    He's 78 and in good health. He parked it in his garage and worked a little bit each day. When I came home from my trip the truck was in near show room condition!

    I will try to take some picts before it gets dirty again!

    Very nice. That means you're taking good care of his daughter; if not, I'm sure he would have crashed that sumbitch LOL

    They are Toyo Open Country AT 275/70/18. PO installed them. I will definitely be looking for something different when I replace them. Will also consider 275/75's for a slightly taller tire.
