    I've got the ryobi 1600 psi from home depot. works great and not worried about stripping paint with the lower pressure. I've had about 3 of those chinese hose reel ones fail and the hose reel sucks from my experience, since the hose is a stiff crappy pressure hose anyways.

    I have literally looked at my gauge gone 'oh shit i need fuel really soon' right before and exit but new that it was more expensive and went...yeah i should be able to make it to the next station...then ran out of fuel at the on ramp from said exit...at least i didn't have to walk far.... and if i remember correctly i put like 21.2 gallons in to fill it up.

    How do you get that mileage??? if my odometer ever read 300 miles i knew i was out of gas 40 miles ago....lmao

    Cool! Good to know, and i like ryobi products! I like the electric ones over motors because they are small and can be stuffed away into a corner for storage. Also less maintenance and much lighter!

    Yeah i need to get one of these! Last thing i did with my truck before tear down for winter work was drive it at the dunes....I've probably had close to 10 lbs of sand rain down on me every time i hit something on the frame.....and just when i think theres none left.....theres even more....lmao

    Yeah the one i got is tiny, super easy to fit anywhere in the garage. worked great for cleaning up the truck after my dunes session...just need to get the underbody sprayer cause i left sooooo much sand in the frame rails...

    yeah that one is probably the smallest one i have seen! good to know that it works good for you! Wondering how well it will work after letting red clay dry on your truck for a week! Seems to be the case after Toyota Jamboree every year!

    Well i can say if you have vinyl wrap on your truck don't let it linger to long or get to close....it did chip off bits of my wrap on my roof but luckily you can't see it under my prinsu so....meh.... Now i know to just be careful.

    Good use of your giant eagle discount. No idea why they think people use that on groceries.

    I didn’t see a write up but it’s a pretty simple mod. The trickiest part was removing the accessory socket. The socket is held in the console by the plastic tube. The metal tube needs to be pulled out by pressing out the little plastic tabs (circles) - I used a HF pick tools. Once the socket is out, I tapped +/- to the plug.
