    Why do people suck???? I was on a fb Jeep JL page and mentioned, like I did here that I may cancel my order due to the manufacturer's bs. Well someone screenshot a piece of my post and sent it to my salesguy, he didn't send the whole post where I said they did an awesome job and I felt like the deal back in January was prob my best and easiest dealer experience ever. Turns out he is a salesman from another dealer, my guess is he had hoped to get me over as a sale some how. Glad my guy called to talk about it

    I screen shot the whole post and sent it to him. It has nothing to do with the dealer. I would definitely buy from him again. Once he saw it in black and white he was thankful for the support. I would recommend him to anyone

    What would that even accomplish? Make a guy feel bad? Just a dick move, talk about an instigator.

    Hopefully it blows up in his face. My guy is the GM at the dealer and I laid it all out for him. I kinda hope he reaches out to the sales guy or the GM of the other dealer.

    @Noelie84 what size light bar do you need for that location?

    I’m the naysayers to combo light bars. They actually really suck for higher speed driving, way too much light scatter. I light my Rigid hyperspots much better. They throw all of the light down the road, where you actually want the light, not a shit ton of light directly in front of the vehicle. Light output shots are deceiving, they are bright as hell they’re just not focused very well. Rigid makes a radius bar or completely hyperspot LEDs which would be the balls, but it was a grand last I checked. Anyways, I have a 30” combo bar I’d led go of pretty cheap if that’s the direction you end up going.

    A 40" bar fits the gap pretty perfectly, according to the quick research I've done. There's a few kits out there that are all that measurement, except for the ones designed to fit between the tow hooks that I don't have :laugh:

    I'm assuming the combo light bars are the ones that have floods on the ends and spots at the center?

    Yes, floods at the end and usually driving pattern in the middle. I had driving pattern Rigid before these and they weren’t overly impressive either.

    Hm. I'll keep it in mind, if I go with a shorter bar I'll PM you. Maybe I'll end up just installing a headache rack and mounting a light bar & plow beacon on that instead of doing individual floods at the back bumper & a magnet mount beacon on the roof...

    My friend that I play co-ed soccer with on Thursday nights asked me to fill in for a team he has in another league, in Trumbull CT, also co-ed.

    The Mrs was cool with it since she is taking tomorrow off to get stuff ready for our son's 4th birfday party on Saturday, and is actually going to his daycare tomorrow for a mothers day thing they are doing.

    Game was supposed to start at 9, but started late. The team we played was higher up in the standings than my friends team was. These guys were fast as hell, and their girls were really really good. Their whole team played very physical too. Hitting, going in hard, talking a lot of shit, the works. The game was very back and forth, made some good saves (I think), and gave up a couple goals that looking back I think I should have done better with. Managed to win 8-6.

    Only left the place at 10:30, and it was a half hour drive home. Got home right after 11, and did some work emails while enjoying a Two Roads Two Juicy. Now catching up on TW before hitting the sack.

    Fellow F-150 owners of Tacomaworld--anyone ever have creaky leaf springs on their truck? From what I can find it doesn't seem common with these, but I heard mine this morning.

    Silencing the leaf springs on the Tacoma was an ongoing battle with both the factory and aftermarket leaf springs I had, so I'm hoping I don't run into that with this truck.
