What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Strip it off completely, prepare the surface (it needs to be slightly rough to allow for good paint adhesion) then spare no expense on the primer and paint you choose, it really does make a difference. Seek advice from the paint representative of the brand of your choosing (Sherwin Williams for example) and they can easily offer you the best solution for your material and environment.

 

Got the new truck out on the trail for the first time. Had a blast

 

get it down to metal. wipe it down with isopropyl or mineral spirits. Use an etching primer. sand. primer. sand. paint. sand. paint. etc..

 

Good looking rig!

Where are those trails?

 

Thanks! It’s Citrus Wildlife Management Area in Florida

 

Super sharp!

 

Hi-Lift Lift-Mate is finally here. I’ll test it out and post pics next weekend. Way too much going at work this week, won’t have the energy or patience after work this week. It does fit nicely in the wheel spokes though.

 

Seeing if I need the back up light glare reducer. Technically it’s gorilla tape. And blocking 1/2 the backup light slot does reduce the glare when I reverse.

 

you got a link to those cup holder side storage things?

 

What size tires? Diggin’ the viper cut.

 

Oh man I’m jealous. I was supposed to go to Citrus today with some friends but I spent the past day and a half in bed instead.

 

Yes ... my new office chair build counts as "what I did to my 3rd gen" because it saved me from scavenging my stock OR shocks to replace the piston. And DAMN but that old chair was worn out ... the piston and the overall stability/structure! If this type of change is what I can expect from even 5100/6112, I may have to.

Hahahaha!

No shame in taking a breather, yeah? Looks like a mighty fine chair to plop yer ass down on though...

 

There is another thread, in the Outdoors" forum ... "Hills Hurt, Couches Kill". Friday was a 4.5 miles hike, a few hundred feet elevation change. Saturday was 7.8 miles, 1400 ft elevation change. Today was 5.7 miles with 1000 ft elevation climb. Last summer I was taking 5+ mile hikes up steep hills 5-6 times a week. The comfort level of my office chair is NOT negotiable.

This year I have a choice between wheeling and hiking. Not sure what will win.

What is the best way to remove the TRD sticker if one wanted to do so without scratching the paint?
