    I had good luck with a single row light bar in the lower part of my bumper. I had it pointed low toward the road and it was awesome when it's snowing.

    Saved my arse driving back to AK last year.

    I'd rather not think of all the $ spent :(
    I ran the blue and amber covers on a set of lightforces and liked the blue better myself. I've got a set of blue covers for my lightforces i'll give away if anyone runs them

    Agreed!

    Anyone know a place that repairs camper shells other than Six Roblees? I most likely need a new rear window/frame assembly but they won't help me because it isn't a Leer topper. It's a "Covermaster" branded topper.

    Thinking about taking a 3rd gen for a test drive :oops:

    I just sold my sled and enclosed trailer and don't need the truck I have now.

    What do you think?

    Barcelona Red Pro or Cement?

    I do enjoy my BR 2nd gen. Though the red/black combo gets over-used. Been thinking of going bronze wheels.

    Snow tires arrived today, light bar is getting here tomorrow, and remote start is going in Monday.

    Trucks are expensive...

    Nice looking truck! What remote start are you doing? Short bed for the win!

    Compustar P2WT11. I wanted an Access Cab long bed, but since this is our family car for the foreseeable future, that wasn't an option. Next time!

    Very nice! I need to get an auto start for my truck. And Access cabs are the only long bed tacos that look right to me, there's something off about the proportions on double cab long beds, but access cabs I love!
