    I'm neutral. I might lean towards Ohio just because it'd be cool for the 3rd string QB to win the national championship :D

    Some really cool shit
    I just moved into a new house after 16 years at the old place. You can't believe how much crap is accumulated in that amount of time. I can only fit one car in a two car garage, so it is difficult to find anything. Tools are everywhere. There is no work space. No work bench. Nothin'. Squat. Then, too, it is hunting season. All this adds up to no time to fiddle about with the truck. Now that all my excuses are out of the way, here are some photos of the stuff I had done to my truck. Wanted to do it myself but knew that it wouldn't get done before summer at the rate I'm going with the house.

    First. sPOD installed.

    [​IMG]

    Rigid Grill and 20" light bar, and Rigid Fog lamps.

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    Finally, Rigid rear lights. This was my only part that I was not 100% satisfied with. Due to the fact that there is a bit of a reverse cut to the bumper, and the fact that I have a slight low rake in the back (temporary until I can block up the leafs) the lights aim to far down. Even with the rear lift fix I believe they are still pointing low due to bumper style. So, while I'm trying to decide if I want a different bumper I'll have to make a bracket to adjust the beam angle.

    Awesome mods, Don. I would have hoped those lights were adjustable.

    Wow! That's a lot of miles. How was it running when you traded in? Was it just time to treat yourself to a new one or was it starting to show its age?

    It was running great, but could deffenitly tell it had seen a lot of hard "oilfield" miles by all the rattling from the interior. Never had a major problem with it. I try to trade up every few years as a precaution. Obviously with that many miles the chances of something big needing replaced is increased. I can't afford down time. Ended up getting 16550 for it from the dealership.
