    Through all my looking around it seems like it is just different. Everything I found seemed to say OTT is the way to go for overall driving experience and shift logic but I can’t speak from experience until I go tomorrow. I’ll report back after my 2 hour drive home.

    I went with medium/spicy. I've been driving it for about a year now and I'd probably go mild/spicy or mild/medium if I were to do it again. I love the improved throttle response but sometimes the torque is a little much when starting from a stop. Not a big deal to lunge forward from time to time but when it's slick out from the snow/ice we get here, it's a little much. I know that's mostly on me but after a year I thought I'd be able to adjust and drive with more consistency.

    I have the same color truck and was looking at these same wheels. Thanks for posting the pic. Do you know if the center caps come in red lettering? Also, did you have to adjust the computer for the different tire/wheel size?

    I liked a lot of what they have to offer, but they don't offer off-line navigation, and after checking into it, it seems like its a bit less reliable than GMs. I like their voice prompts feature better than GMs, but that's about it.

    Ended up getting a cheap welder on a sale at HF, naturally my first welding project was something for the taco. Tried my hand at a set of bed stiffeners, definitely not as pretty as the Total Chaos ones, but I'm sure they're quite strong and should work great for me!

    Don’t mind the blue wires. Still haven’t figured out where to add the wires for the backlight on the ditch lights. Also not sure if these will be bright enough for ditch lights. But install came out clean

    I put some DD SS2 pods on for ditch lights with an amber cover, I’d say they’re a little under powered for ditch lights IMO. I wanted something small and these fit that requirement. I’ll use them a bit and see if they end up growing on me a bit.

    Same here in north central PA, and they also use liquid brine. I also did the initial undercoat, and each fall, blow through 4-5 cans, and a paper suit. Got new tires and an alignment, the tech asked what I sprayed on it, told him FF, and he said he would rather the oily grime than rust on all the fittings and hardware. I let it set up for a few days, with no wet weather driving, then blast down a few dirt roads.. very happy with FF, also use it on my front mount snow blower for the past 8 years, and not a spec of rust..
    I will say some of the can nozzles were not the greatest after using partial cans.. even after thorough 5 minute shaking, I’ve had them clog, and seem to loose pressure with 1/3-1/2 can left..

    Here's my 23. I just did the small Wescott lift and put on 33 inch Wild Peaks. Other than that, not much besides a few interior details to black out some chrome.

    That looks amazing! What a difference. I like the access cabs a lot.

    Installed a OPT7 Redline Parlux Triple Row LED Tailgate Light Bar a few days ago and it doesn't look to bad, hopefully even Atlanta drivers will actually see it and not run into the back of my car like last time.

    Looks good, I was just looking at this product. Did you get the amber or red? Looks like the red is sold out on their site. Straightforward install?

    I got the one with the amber turn signals.

    Yeah install was easy, I ordered their trailer extension wiring adapter so it was all plug and play except you just need to link up the white reverse light wire from the harness to the white on the light bar itself with the included crips/heat shrink.
