    Definitely bulky, I try to roll mine up when not in use but end up just stuffing it on the passenger floorboard and up by the passenger seat if I’m driving solo.

    Truck looks good man!! One semi-unrelated question though.... In place of the fog lights, it looks like you have "plugs" for lack of a better term, just to fill the holes. If so, where did you get them? I have one completely missing, and I never used them anyway, but I hate the "open holes" look...would rather use something like what you have.

    My landlord backed into my truck and is being a complete dick about it, wont budge on putting it on his insurance and threatened me (remaining on the property) if I perused legal recourse. I know what some of y’all are going to say but I’m not a coward, I’m just wise enough to know when and where to choose my battles, and unfortunately my current living situation has me in a more than vulnerable position and to make matters doubly unfortunate, keeping the waters calm at this point in my life is bigger than fighting for what’s right, as it relates to this, and I may have to come out of pocket on this all on my own, and that’s fine, I’m not looking for sympathy but if anyone has or knows of a right front and rear second gen door/s for sale in MD or around PA,VA,WV, I’m willing to drive, (preferably in Barcelona Red and electric functionality) please let me know.
    I would be most appreciative for any tips of where to look or known deals out there.
    I’ve been looking on FB marketplace, but it’s slim pickens. The right front is the priority!
    Thanks guys!

    Ah man that sucks, so he admittedly is at fault and is threatening you by leveraging your living situation? I know you said you’re trying to not rock the boat but damn… sounds like you got a lawsuit in your favor. Hope you get it all sorted. Did you consider a local pick n pull?

    Correct to all of the above.
    And I have, it’s just finding them in stock at pick n pulls, that’s the problem, so if anyone knows of any availability I’m all ears, thanks!

    I'm not following, he won't contact his insurance company correct.
    If parked at home and hit and run then comp. Will cover.
    Follow me. Or if you have renters insurance.

    I found some on eBay Motors. Not sure how much you want to pay or how far you want to drive.

    Get the threats on writing and or recording and then peruse legal action. Alot of attorneys dont charge until there's a payout.

    My gas door pops open sometimes. I've tried WD40ing it, it's so tight when it's closed it just pops out so easily. Thoughts? I don't like looking like a jackass who forgets to close their gas door

    He said, and I quote, “If you file against me we are going to have problems.” And given that he is an extremely weak man, physically as well as constitutionally, I can only take that as a threat against my remaining on the property. That quote may not seem too bad but when combined with what I know about his character and personality, the meaning behind it was/is crystal clear to me.
    His whole demeanor was defensive, yelling, shouting, no apology, no sympathy, just being a straight up dick about it, he even barked at me to stop taking pictures and to “move my fucking truck,” so he could pull his truck back in his parking spot.
    The level of self control I exhibited was legendary, next level, I remained calm and collected the entire time, even with him shouting at me. The only thing I felt was devastation at seeing my truck like that. You know how it is, when you do all the work/maintenance yourself, it hits a bit harder when something happens to your truck.
    I contacted my insurance and they said, they only will only move forward but they will file against his insurance. Which brings me to the picking and choosing my battles dilemma.
    I do not have renters insurance so that is out of the equation all together.
