What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

That is correct. To answer your question I would also not wear a shirt with the flag in it because it is not suppose to be worn as apparel. Also, shirts can get dirty if you have to lay down on the ground for any reason or work on a vehicle.
Military/law enforcement uniforms are an exception to this rule because the flags are worn for identification purposes

 

True. I was just using it as an example. But, that brings up a good point. Our trucks get dirty, so…
Anyway, I just realized, this thread is not about this topic. But it is a good topic!

I've had the Stant Locking Gas Cap since the beginning of the year (2022) with no error codes.

I intend on keeping it on throughout the year which includes our freezing winters. The locking tailgate thing...wasn't aware it froze but I will also update that in Dec2022-Feb2023.

 

That was my impression, I thought those fall under “replica” flags? Therefore, wouldn’t that put them in the same category as a flag vinyl you sometimes see on the hood or tailgate?

 

The truck getting dirty is also why I do not personally have a flag on my truck. Been in the military for 20+ years so I do my best to not disrespect the flag.

It’s a touchy subject for sure with a lot of passion involved. It always bugged me that people had US flag masks…just chock it up to an individual attempting to be patriotic and not the contrary

 

How do you add heated seats?

 

Yeah I like them personally. Only decal I will remove is the v6 probably.

 

New center caps showed up today. Ill toss them on the weekend.

 

I think you need a few more acoustic guitars! Lol

 

Trail Edition grille showed up. OE grille, aftermarket TSS garnish. 1mm thick washer on the top screw of the sensor. No warning lights after a short drive.

 

Lol. Yes i do

 

Thanks! its aluminium weighs maybe 40 lbs, made in BC, Vancouver island, nice little shop. Google Greenlane Off-road if youre looking for it.
Install was straightforward, just bolts right onto where pre-existing aluminium crash bar is on taco.
If i had removed skid plate and winches control box beforehand (wish the instructions said to) would've taken like 2hrs max i think.
If you have any questions happy to answer. there is a full install youtube video from Greenlane. i also took pictures along the way.

 

I appreciate your patriotism and support for law enforcement. Another member addressed this perfectly.

 

Spot on!

 

Kit off Amazon.

To anyone in the military that understands flag placement you end up looking like a tool with a flag pointed the wrong way. It's simple, put the union/stars facing the direction you are moving forward. If that is confusing you could google early war paintings for reference. The union/stars is always in the direction of the attack. So if it's not in the direction you are traveling say placed on your tailgate you are displaying the flag in an incorrect orientation.

With that said, it's a freaking magnet on a vehicle, we have bigger problems to worry about.

 

Lets try to not tear each other apart for correct or incorrect display of the American Flag. Im not military, Im retired law enforcement. The way I see it , its great that people display it in general. Give em a pass.

Happy Thursday!

 

Where did you purchase those from, how hard is it to get the top cover of the mirror off to install them?
