    I have a basement full of truck items to wash, dry, buff and wax my baby, even some of that ceramic wax, but no outdoor line. I guess you could say all dressed up and no place to go. I have to get a frost proof faucet. By the way 27 degrees, with a wind chill of 18 here.

    That's what I told my wife. If it's 40, I am going to wash it in the driveway... just as soon as I get my plumber relative to help me put in the frost free faucet. We don't get many sunny days here. I think we have the 4th cloudiest (read, dreariest) metro in the nation.

    A good detailer could fix that.

    in fact a good detailer would get rid of that factory orange peel and make it look better than it did before the accident

    And maybe mention to upgrade the bumper to a high clearance one. That’s a tiny scuff...

    Exactly what Mattynokes said! You should be out on the trails getting even better scratches, minor dings, knicks an bruises. Thank your wife for being concerned and being honest and forthright with you.

    I traded in for an import model with far fewer miles a few years ago, things are working out nicely :)

    That’s great if you base it all on appearance. We run a little deeper here and we are over 60. If you live long enough you might get it.

    Judge much?
    btw, I'll be 60 in 2 months. I get it, but life doesn't always be what you want it to be. Sometimes things change.
