    I spaced the meet last night...I fell asleep right after work and then went to the bear tooth to see Hitchcock. When I was looking at the menu I saw buffalo wings and immediately remembered BWW haha. Oh well. The movie was good and the food was great as usual.

    haha yea my crazy land record was last year in my audi. Clear to anchorage in just under three hours. but it was summer time lol. I'll be honest Im still trying to work a little of those dumber years out. Its just hard not to see what you can do with certain cars especially after youve done some work to it and you wanna see how she handles.

    2 inch lift. After market rims and rites. Auto start
    The snap tint stuff works awesome, did my old Venza and just last week my taco. Just hate to keep on the air bubbles though. Seems like I notice them whenever I'm at a stop light :D

    DO NOT TAKE YOUR TRUCK TO AK LASER WASH ON 5th! THEY COMPLETELY EFFED UP MY PAINT IN SEVERAL LOCATIONS. 7ahaqysu_e4857bda50010b88fef90c158638bc1f90454648.jpg edeparej_b99b849cae3f0e3a5277d19c2d59962eed6046e7.jpg mu3yvujy_f858e620c7b66dddeddfc79af50971957efdee2c.jpg.

    A guy showed up as I was uploading these photos and said someone will call me tomorrow. We'll see if they follow through. AWFUL car wash. It didn't even rinse the soap off very well. Just awful.

    I used that one once to spray off my four wheeler it was cheaper than using the one in mtn view. I know Matt washed his there using the brush and scratched up his truck so watch out for that, I would bring your own sponge/wash mitt
