    Possibly. I had the vivyl flooring in my first truck. It didn't hold up very well. Ended up stretching and tearing in several places.

    Thank you sir! :hattip:

    Its definitely a big upgrade over the carpet

    Cant go wrong either way. Ive always found the carpet to be the weak link of the interior in these trucks. I personally dont think trucks should come with carpet.. this aint no sedan:D

    I think it's because the Keurig draws A LOT of power to heat the water up so quickly. Although my battery died on the Runner this weekend so that may have been a contributing factor as well.

    ^^^ This, the amps required for the heating elements to get water to near boiling reasonably quickly is quite high. Now, if you could pour pre-heated water in, it may work,,, but if you had pre-heated water, the need for the Keurig does go down. ;)

    All perspective I guess. I guess you can technically look at it as less pay per hour in the end. Assuming your salaried off of 2080 hours or whatever signed up for.

    I did actually learn at this new job, there are salary with OT scales. Which wouldn't be bad.

    Don't get me wrong. I'll go salary. It'll just take a couple extra pre-decimal zeros. :D and not pre first number either :p

    Man this day has pumped the brakes hard. Lots going on but time isn't keeping pace with it for some reason. I really thought it was about 14:00. :bananadead:

    My morning has gone reasonably well, despite getting very little done. I always struggle in the afternoon though so we'll see how the next three hours fair.
