AZ BS Thread 2.0

Looks OK. Needs hidden hitch, sensor holes, and a description.
CBI posted one that has almost all of that.

That was with OD off, heavy head wind and at 75 mph. Lol

 

Bar far the most scenic state I've gone threw. Out of the last few states I've gone threw.

 

AZ has vegetation though

 

blasphemy! my 3rd gen got like 12 on a good day on the highway with 255s.

 

I got 14 doing 80 on 35's from San Diego to here. I really don't like the 3.4L. It's missing 2 cylinders

 

She gets 14 daily. But on our long trips for camping, she averages like 18-19 throughout the trip.

 

Hey @Mike330R,

Is this your old truck?

 

Yes.

 

It's nice! I kind of know the girl that just bought it. She works with Sam.

 

Didn't know it sold again.
It was a good truck and had the parts on it that were needed but not overly built.
I want a similar rear bumper for the new ride.

 

Did he add better rear woofers?
It still have a 2nd battery in the tool box and the radio power switch in the glove box?
There's also a small fuse block down behind the clutch pedal and another under the passenger seat.
Wonder if he changed anything else.

 

She doesn't know about the woofers. Haha. She knows about the battery, power switch and now the fuse block.

How many miles did you sell it at? She has it now with 236k or 226k.

 

Read this for sale ad about a shitty buggy, it's hilarious

I sold it with just over 230K.
Had Yota Pro's do a bunch of stuff to it before I sold it. I could email her the invoice if she cares. It made it a whole new truck. I was trying to avoid buying a new one. Had it done a couple months before the 2016 was released. Before it was released I was used to driving new rentals (for work) and the colorado came out. I was tempted to get one but decided to have Yota Pro's work it over then the '16 was released

CB still in it? Antenna and cable is under the rear seat deck along with another power cable for a light bar. Run the cable out the back window to a roof rack mounted light bar. Switch for that power cable should be tucked next to the drivers seat and center console. I have the clamp on roof racks if she is interested.

Compressor still in the tool box? Another small ARB under the hood.

 

You make this truck sound like Mcgyver with all the hidden gadgets.

 

Haha yeah!
I didn't want switches visible for stuff I wouldn't use often and didn't want anything to permanent.
The fuse block under the passenger seat was made with a longer wire so it could be swung out to replace a fuse if needed.

The radio switch in the glove box would switch power from the OEM battery to the one mounted in the tool box incase you wanted to sit somewhere and use the radio. With the switch off it would run only from key power/OEM battery.
Tool box battery was connected via big cable with a resettable breaker on each end incase of a major malfunction or if you wanted to turn off power at either end. That battery was also charged when the engine was running.
Even added lights and a switch in the tool box.

 

Pelferybilt skids finally going on..... Well IFS at least..
