    Probably could. I'd be willing to bet you'd work that 4x9 and 5x8, having every other friday off or whatever it is.

    At Aker, they used to run a 4x9, 1x4, so every friday was either a half day or a home day. It was nice.

    The guy I replaced 6 months ago, left for Boeing. They made him an offer he couldn't refuse.

    I know several hours that work for them and ALL of them are happy with the company. :thumbsup:

    I don't think my GPA was high enough to make it through the skimming filter. lmao

    Without getting taboo, I have something cooking back in Mobile that would be a "couldn't refuse" type deal. Always trying to improve that situation, grinding. haha

    I just bought a dishwasher part, not as thrilling as a truck part.

    Well after searching for the past hour or so, I have come to the conclusion I will never own any lighting project from rigid. I'm sure they are best of the best, but I cannot make myself pay that kinda price for a light that from strictly a performance point of view, is not much brighter, burn cooler, etc than cheaper not as popular name brand stuff. My Nilights behind my grill and also my reverse lights are ridiculously bright and have not failed going on 6 months for the grill lights, and over a year on the reverse lights(knock on wood). So I do believe I will be ordering a NiLight 20" light bar for my bumper and calling it a day!

    50$ wasn't necessarily fun.

    I'm sticking with Cali-Raised. Affordable, and I love the ditch lights.

    Yea but could have been worse. I have to figure out what is up with our fridge. The water dispenser won't work. I can hear it working but nothing comes out. A couple years ago I bought a small foil heating pad, wired it to the fridge and stuck it behind the spout where these are known to freeze up. That worked out great but could that little foil heating element "burn" out??? Not sure what to do. Tap water taste like garbage and I want our fridge water working again.

    Lol

    Yea, I like their products as well but they are so similar to NiLight stuff for much more, I cant justify swapping over. I have been on the fence for a while about ditch lights, but once I get my LED fogs in, my LED light bar in, along with my LED grill lights, I might oughta hold off on the ditch lights for multiple reason. 1, running that many lights, I should really wait til I can install and finish the dual battery setup. And 2, I'm not so sure how THAT many lights would look. Ive always loved putting lights on everything, but there in a fine line between functionality + style and flat out overkill!

    I don't know a thing about refrigerators, I have to get my ice maker fixed.

    I can tell you, I wouldn't have ditch lights if they weren't free. I hate putting lights on everything, I like mine "hidden" as well as I can. I will have the 40" single tucked into the prinsu, and a 20" in my bumper. that's it, well and the ditch lights.

    I hear ya. I have never been a fan on the full roof sized light bars on top. They remind of the the old school "visor" look in the 90s. Not to mention I have heard plenty of horror stories about the glare. Granted, its not like you are going to be running them for a long period of time, but I like things very clean with little to no drawbacks. At least with your prinsu, you being able to tuck it into/under it you wont have the visor look.

    *Also, yes I know I wear visors on my head but that is the only place where the visor style is appropriate.
