    When you calculate your mileage, do you take into account the larger tires and correct the difference?

    You sure 265/70 is stock size for the 2.7L

    thought it was 245/75 or so . . .

    Just double checking because that will make a big difference in your MPG correction calculation :thumbsup:

    I had two 2nd gens, bought this as a "project" and never used the 2nd gen anymore, so I sold it to a buddy who moved to Alaska. I had to learn the hard way, bought a second gen only to find that I should have gotten a 1st from the get go!

    What type of sprayer are you using? [Are you using a sprayer?] I rolled on my rocker panels (wasn't the greatest job ever done) and I'm thinking about a complete re-do. All the sprayers I see are 'just for paint" and a few for thicker applications. I don't wanna deal with the clog-up factor. On my touch up I tried the spray can stuff from AutoZone and it looked 'pretty' but the first limb scraped it off.
