    To be perfectly honest.....I liked the way my truck looked without them(last pic without) I pretty much did it for the wife and kids. To be fair the wife bought the truck for my birthday...lol. I only drive it a few times a month now...but it gets worked during those days.

    Thanks!
    Funny... I read a recent article that said LEDs, although much more efficient, have actually increased the amount of light coming from cities, instead of lessening the light pollution.


    I'll be looking for the best ingress/egress rails. Wondering about mud and dirt on my pants as I'm getting out.

    Well, the running lights and the entire truck that I got less than 2 weeks ago had to go. At first glance it was a killer deal. After further review, it's a heap. It had several leaks... and way too much rust for me long term.

    So instead it went to the dealer on the last day of the month...where I found an even better deal on this! 2018 SR 5.7 4X4 with the long bed.

    Unique, functional and plenty of potential here. Just got tint today, wheels next... maybe a slight lift/level.

    It's a work truck and meant to haul. I tried to find an older one, but might as well go new with resale values so strong.

    Thanks! It was a hassle, but all came together.
