    I really like my leather wrap on the steering wheel. I've added one to each of my trucks over the years. Makes the wheel larger and so much nicer to grip, especially if your wheel is deteriorating.

    Me too. I bought a black Wheelskins years ago and not only is it what you said but it's also tough. Just have to stay ahead of hand oils/salt with leather cleaner/conditioner. Especially with black.

    I keep one of these in the truck, don't leave it alone in the city without it. Mine is silver though, and doubles as a skull smasher.

    For mine to make it nicer to drive every day I did the following,
    Blue Sea Dual USB Charger and locking 12V plug.
    0621191343.jpg
    Nicer Radio with Bluetooth.
    IMG_5743 (1).jpg
    Intermittent Wiper Mod.
    IMG_5710 (1).jpg
    Honda Odyssey Sprayers.
    Husky Floor Liners.
    Phone mount that's sturdy and easy to see.
    These are just all things I found that just making the truck more drive-able and more enjoyable for me. All these little things have made this truck really nice to be able to hope in a crack out miles.

    That club I have tucked at seat side is a Truck Club. A bit longer and heavier than the regular club-just the tool for harder skulls.
