    Sometimes, the light sensor pisses me off. But it’s the interior lights, like when you hit shadows and the head unit decides to change shades. Is your truck one without drl off and auto on the stalk?

    Installed my TRD Pro skid plate and finally mounted my battery charger so it’s not just sitting behind the headlight.

    Interesting. Apparently I have some research to do. Care to point me in the right direction as to why this is necessary or useful? TBH, I've never charged a battery outside of fleet vehicles but I do keep a NOCO Jumpstart setup. I run a dashcam in parking mode so maybe it's a good idea to have a charger? I dunno, I feel like I know nothing right now. How often does it charge? Or need charging?

    Last year at this time I had no power for 2.5 days and I had a full tank. Started at 4am. Started my Taco and plugged in a 50" cord in the back in of the bed. Used my power strip and plugged in my Router, Laptop, lamp, large TV, etc.
    Dang Show off. :thumbsup:

    i use it because I live in Fairbanks, and -40 in the winter is pretty hard on a battery. This way when I plug my truck in at night it also charges my battery. I imagine it’s also handy for people who leave their vehicles sitting for a while.

    they’re pretty cheap, about $60, and take about 10 minutes to install. Definitely worth it for the piece of mind.

    Took apart my front suspension today and adjusted out the Taco lean and cleaned my TRD Skid. The R4T LCA skids are already starting to rust. It's been on my truck for only a few months.
    I'll probably remove them and repaint them when I take apart the rear suspension to swap out the AAL to the Icon 3 leafs.

    That sucks about the R4T LCA Skids. I really want some. They are sold out, no list, no notifications. I wonder if clear coating with rust prevention would help before installing, assuming they ever get some.

    I picked it up from GP Walsh Design, here --https://www.gpwalshdesigns.com

    The hood decal comes with the topo for the actual scoop, I just ruined it when I was installing it so I ended up painting the scoop Olive Drab. I also picked up the color matching topo for the rear window. That install took all my patience making sure the lines stayed on the glass and I still need to go back today to trim some edge pieces. Here are two pics from last night with my spare removed out of the bed.

    I don't think they are powder-coating these LCA skids. Seems like a very light coat of paint. I'll probably paint them with rustoleum, later.
    But yeah, they need to focus more on quality, especially on the products that carry their Logo.
