Army Green thread: let’s keep it green!

It’s 270 lbs according to GFC. I had the option when I lifted it so I went for the add a leaf option since I planned on getting the camper. I don’t think you’d have to for the camper but it doesn’t hurt if you plan to have more weight in the bed.

 

Went off-roading for the first time last weekend in the PNW. Had a blast and learned what I need for the next adventure.

 

You already look pretty well prepared! What do you need for next outing?

 

Camping: I need a water system to shower and a power bank to charge my stuff. I also need a fridge because the ice ain't cutting it.
Truck: I need to get a lift, bottle jack, and tire repair kit.

 

PPF and Ceramic coating went on today. Hopefully next week will be lift and tires.

 

Looks so good. Waiting on my AG truck to get delivered and seriously considering PPF and/or ceramic coating. Mind sharing your experience? Reasons you wanted them? I’ve been doing some reading on both those options, thinking about if either/both would help with ease of cleaning (esp living in the dusty desert), protecting the truck from the sun (again, living in the desert - and parking truck outside with no shade), things like that.

 

I'm getting my ceramic coating in a few weeks can't wait! What is PPF?

Still debating if i want to peel off the TRD stickers.
Not a huge fan of the red although it has grown on me a little

 

Go clean, and lose the front spoiler/air dam.

 

Thanks a bunch! I guess there are a lot of reasons that I had been considering the coating and PPF none the least of which is this damn forum. It's a gateway drug to spending all of your money! I saw the way some of the coated trucks looked and I was hooked.

A big consideration is that I really like to keep my truck clean and wash it often... so the idea of making washing an easier experience with the ceramic was really appealing to me. Also I drive on a lot of gravel/dirt roads when I'm hunting and just generally drive a lot. On my 2015 TRDOR I have quite a few chips and paint loss on the front fenders, hood, and bumper from rocks and other debris so when I learned about the PPF protecting those areas I was very interested.

Another big reason is that I found a guy close to me that had great reviews and literally spent a ton of time on the phone with me answering questions and explaining the details of all of it. If I hadn't found him I don't know if I would have gone through with it. I think that the most important thing is to find a shop that will explain the process to you and will stand behind their work as it's not a cheap process.

Also if I hadn't had all the paint loss on my 2015 I probably wouldn't have done the PPF as it's way more expensive than the ceramic.

 

100% worth losing the decals. Looks so much cleaner.

 

Yes I agree

 

Damn, now I’m going to have to do that

 

Anybody remove the black vinyl between the doors? Can you post a pic please? Been debating peeling mine off.
