    So my truck is at a point where I may need to start using the slider as a step. If I get beefier suspension that can handle the weight of my armor and give me another inch or so, then I'd definitely need to adjust.

    My poor girlfriend though, she struggles.

    There are some places in my back yard with a yellow tint, but beyond that I haven't noticed anything.

    This is now the 2nd time in the last week I thought of a perfect use of a Grand Tour gif, but I can't seem to find one of the situation. This one was Hammond getting out of the truck with the step ladder from the Columbia special a few weeks ago.

    That's basically been my understanding for many full size trucks. Doesn't take much to get 37s on there.

    The half tons are tough, but the 3/4 tons are on solid axles so there's not much limiting what they can stuff. With my F150, I'd have to do some pretty good work to make it clear even a 35" tire. I may or may not have done some research when I owned the F150 on swapping in some Raptor wheels/tires. :anonymous: It was a very expensive proposition and I never went through with it.

    Have you been wearing polarized sunglasses? That always makes the snow look kind of blue to me, when I wear polarized ski goggles all day and then take them off.

    Yeah, I can apparently fit 295/70R18's without any rubbing, and 35's if I don't mind rubbing at full lock.

    That's exactly what it'd look like, I'm sure. He and I are similar, dimensionally, though he's looking rounder the last couple of years as he gets further into middle age.

    Even at stock height I need to use the running bars unless I want to 'hop' in. :anonymous:

    That wasn't true about 15 years ago! They deregulated most of it and they came up with all those ridiculous loans that most people had defaulted on. They were almost 100% of the reason for the recession back then
