    It's a possibility, have to wait for more tune options to become available :D

    Going back to when Pete Jackson cam gear drives were popular for the Chevy 350's

    Those look nice! There's a thread here about them. I was looking at the RAZR MT last year as well. The Trepadors are just awesome looking!

    Oh it's happening!!! I won't bet my life on it but I am very certain I will be the only Outback wilderness with the wheels and tires that I chose. Can't wait for spring! Also getting that cool road America plates and I have front and rear vinyl decals for the emblems to install as well :D

    I apologize if this has been hashed before... but, what is the coldest temperature at which you all wash your vehicles? The salt FREAKS me out (I came from out west where they use these cool things called studded snow tires), so I tend to wash a lot in the winter. today's high was -4 and its been almost two weeks like this. Made the mistake last year on a cold day-shit froze as it was sprayed on and it was a bit embarrassing trying to get all the soap embedded ice off so I could see. Anyway, maybe it will warm up next week, but the truck needs a bath! Do tell...

    Thursday it's supposed to be 30°. I would try to do it then if possible. I try to do it when it's above freezing, but obviously not an option right now. :D

    I use touchless automatic. It's not as nice as a hand wash, but it's worked for me in the winter.

    Yeah, the carpet munchers in my neck of the woods typically run stock.
