What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

New Black Rhino wheels

 

Thanks ya it was a blast! We love getting out and I have been really enjoying g filming our trips. Now to upgrade from my iPhone and free editing apps to some real camera gear. Lol thanks for checking it out!

 

Ah ok. I’m about 2 hours SW

 

lol bro did you have an under the hood fire?!

 

Actually, yesterday, but I replaced the stock battery that finally gave up the ghost. I am thoroughly amazed it lasted this long, but luckily I was expecting it and had a replacement ready to go. It didn't really give any warning. I ran errands with it one day, parked it overnight and it struggled to start in the morning. Drove it around all day with no issuse re-starting after sitting for short periods. The following morning it cranked and cut out.

Thankfully a quick fix, and we will see how the Costco Interstate battery does. It certainly can't be any worse than the stock unit.

 

not yet

 

That’s good! I got my own rats nest under the hood but keep putting off shortening wires or hooking up the aux beam I bought. Maybe when my buddy gets back from overseas in the fall and can help.

you have inspired me to put the relay holder on. Was taking the metal bracket off the relays bad? I’ve managed one with a small screw driver but almost stabbed my hand

 

It was pretty hard. Get yourself a set of pliers and bend the metal piece (the side with the mount hole) and pry it up. Doing so should bend the metal and plastic to where you can start wedging a knife between the relay and metal.

 

I forgot to mention that the metal piece that sticks up to keep it from moving (circled in photo below) does not bend like a typical plastic clip would.

 

Welcome to TW! Truck looks awesome!

 

Some paddleboard action in south Texas over the weekend

 

I forgot I ordered these Army Green letter overlays, since they have been on backorder for a few months. They had every other color, but of course not Army Green. To my surprise, they showed up today! I liked the black, but I like the color match much better.


While I was at it, I finally put the letters on the tailgate handle. I wanted the front and back to match, OCD ha.

 

Yep. We made a detour on our way home from camping at the north end of the Olympic Peninsula. Pretty cool to see the towers up close.

 

Added a little to the taco.
We’re driving down the west coast living the dispersed camping life and up through the interior for 4 weeks on our wedding/honeymoon in July and thought it might be a good idea to show where we’re from???? Not a good idea?? Do you Americans approve of us?? Lol
Matte black vinyl flag.

 

At least everyone will know you’re unarmed. Probably not the place for political jokes, but we’re basically neighbors so I figured it’d be Ok. Flag does look cool though!

 

You are correct.. Unarmed for sure. Sad to hear what's going state side on the news. Not basically neighbors, we are, and looking forward to exploring your beautiful country.

 

Awesome video! Loved the dogs being there with ya!!

 

Hope you enjoy! Post pics in the camping thread look forward to seeing it.


The flag is a nice touch

 

Thank you, yeah they have a hard time but they still love being out camping they’ve been our travel companions for 15 years. As you can see a slight wind pushes them around these days.

 

That's the plan!! I appreciate the kind words. I'd love to ask the question "any advice traveling through your country?" LOL but I feel there's a thread for that...
