    You guys are talking about using the 120v outlet in the back of the truck?
    i think will be unsafe, think about rain and humidity in December.
    A 12v system will be more desirable.

    I have a tonneau cover this year, so no issue. But before, I even power washed the truck to get salt off, with the lights plugged in, with no problems. The lid for the plug kind of acts as a "roof".

    Tire wreath for sure. Most original and least members can copy it cause everyone doesn't have a spare there. :D

    It's a bitch to get the lights wrapped through the tire and if you get a flat your screwe3d but besides that it's funny. I did it for a laugh last year.

    Now ya'll got me wantin' to wrap my truck in lights. So festive. I didn't think we could ride down the road with the inverter on without messing something up? Wal Mart here I come.
