    I hear ya. Lug nuts aren't loctite'd either so why do them. I will check them at every tire rotation interval and if they are backing out for whatever reason, I can add some later.

    GOsh, that's a nice BIG RED truck :thumbsup:

    Glad to hear from ya. I'll get you on the list and repost it here in a sec. :wave:

    Okay, so who is this sexy beast? DEFINITELY card (and pic) worthy. Saw it when out this morning running some hard core errands out at Camp Mabry - it was at TXDOT across MOPAC from it.

    @CaptAmerica .... >>>> <<<< stumbled across this, resized it so it wasn't gigantic, and added it here so you can save it. You'll have to add it via "upload a file" each time (or add it to your sig and you can just copy/paste) , but our OP Capt. needs his own smiley/emoji/gif thing :cheers: ***well eff me...


    ***I'm an interwebz newb:facepalm: as I typed that I looked up and saw your sig... and you have a capt sig smiley already... must have missed that over the past forever :rofl::oops::anonymous: ... Well, it killed a bit of time on night shift so there is that. Back to your regular scheduled programming

    That's a good looking truck. Dem wheels!! We usually have folks arriving before 7am to secure the spot.

    Also, don't see you on the "list" on post #1. @CaptAmerica can get you added. Welcome!
