    Assuming you're talking about the Pelfreybilt reinforcements... they come with their front bumpers for added strength (or reinforcement) if you plan on adding & utilizing a winch

    Yes Pelfreybilt. Planning on get one of their hybrids, and thought I'd have to look elsewhere for bumper reinforcements. Glad they include them!! :)

    Just turned off the "Maint Required" light

    * Turn the ignition switch to the “On” position, but do not start the engine
    * Press the odometer button until you see “TRIP A” on the little display
    * Next, turn the ignition “off”
    * Press and hold the Trip Odometer Reset button, and turn the ignition switch to the “On” position
    * Continue to hold down the Trip Odometer Reset button until “000000” MILES appears on the display and the maintenance light turns off.

    Sold our washer and dryer

    Then went to the store on base and after scoring a MacBook Pro charger for $23.98 since they price match, I saw how glorious Nikki was looking:

    Well well well, looks like I'm back from my deployment to the Pacific so it's oh so nice to be able to drive Nikki again.
    Gave her some TLC (a wash and a wax)
    Plus she hit 40k miles yesterday!

    Scored a set of KO2s for $750 through a private sale courtesy of TW.
    I originally wanted ST Maxx but couldn't pass up this deal. Now it's really gonna be a Brocoma :anonymous:

    The tire size:

    Loaded up in the back:

    Yes, yes, I've been waiting for new shoes!
