    UPS's fault though? I ordered some cali raised sliders about a month ago now and I don't think they've shipped yet. I get that they sometimes have big lead times but I'm starting to get concerned.

    I run primarily Earthmate which pairs with my Garmin inReach Mini so it can navigate with satellite connection. I can also text message in the app using the satellite connection. I have also used Gaia and Motion-x GPS in the past, but I almost completely use Earthmate now.I like using Truckerpath for interstate driving because it lists all the truck stops and they’re spaced perfectly for filling up. I try to use Travel America’s because they have Popeyes too :cheers:

    Thank you! Good stuff I need to look into. I too have a Garmin InReach - I'll have to do the pairing to my phone and see what's up with that.

    Yeah it was UPS's screw up. When I ordered the caliraised sliders back in August it said they were in stock but covid probably fucked that up. Still worth the wait. They're probably running behind but if youre worried I'd give them a call. Their customer service was pretty honest and helpful with me

    Took a short road trip with the wife down the cost to Seabrook this weekend. Nice drive with very little traffic at all. The ocean is always a powerful sight to see and hear.

    Did the modified DATAS Mod for my intake as seen here : https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/cowl-induction-snorkel.525314/

    Since I have the ABS Module in my 06 OR this opens up the room for a 2nd battery I want to get installed. DATA Mod.jpg

    However, today's purchases included a welder and half of a HF mini trailer for $70, just need a tongue and wheels. Thinking of turning into a small camping trailer to hold some water and other dry storage so not everything is in my truck. Honestly just another project to keep me busy during quarantine.

    Finally decided to upgrade my lights after years of having water condensation in my cheap head lights and fogs. Couldn’t be happier!

    my belt started to squeal upon start up last week during the cold spell we had.... I just started to research this.... what pulley's did you go with? Were you able to determine that the belt tightener was okay and just the pulley was bad?

    Seeing the uv faded cab edges, I had to do a double take because I thought that was my truck for a moment.... Ha! (I just had my cab re-painted recently and it looks like new again...) nice rig!
