    Took the truck for a quick spin. The headlights are better than the last set. They are whiter. Distance looks to be the same.
    Now I need reverse bulbs like @CTSpruceMica

    Morning all. Decent day yesterday. Installed the sherpa rack. Washed the truck and used the ceramic quick detailer. This is the first vehicle I have ceramic coated and oh boy I am impressed.

    Prior to backing your wife's vehicle out of your garage, verify that the door is open.
    This is particularly important if your wife is in the vehicle with you.

    Sort of warm out, nothing moving, but nice relax time for a couple hours.

    Junk.

    Big difference between me using a junkyard radiator in my old cars that weren't worth much of anything and at least had a warranty to work properly etc versus this, plus I didn't have much money then.

    Signed up the kiddo for this.

    Should be a fun experience for him, to compete in something goalie specific. And if he's still interested in playing the position, this place does clinics as well so it's something to consider to help him develop.
