    I was the same way when I was in Jersey, after seeing a few used Taco's around here, not messing around with the salt.

    Yeah me either. I do have a toy. But not “trucks”. Salt is no bueno. The bottom of mine looks very clean. Gotta do it

    Ive always been religious with it, inside door panels and all. Just soak her down. My mom's 18 JLU looks immaculate when I crawled up underneath it yesterday but she drives like a total of 2 miles a day.

    No worries man, I usually just go to a car wash place and crawl up underneath and go to town. Rack wouldnt be convient but not necessary.

    Instead of crawling on the ground when you throw your fluid film party. Impress your friends with this awesome folding creeper. Headrest bends and folds into a shop stool with a place for your beer. $50 bucks. PM me. Thanks.

    If anybody wants to get together and fluid film some trucks in the general N. IL area, I would be up for it after 2nd week of October. I have been touching up minor rust on my truck since I got it in the start of the Summer. I am ready to do one last touch up, fluid film everything, put my skids back on, and hopefully not do much else to it all winter.

    My house and neighborhood are not too conducive to having a group, but I have been doing touchups in my driveway- not too bad if your truck is lifted a couple inches. Rust never sleeps...

    I mentioned earlier back about meeting for a fluid film party maybe late oct/early november as it looks we are still a bit out for the first snow.

    Little early for salt/winter weather still. Sometime November. Better to wait to get more out of the application than having to respray, maintain mid winter.
