Installed some CoverCraft Seat Saver seat covers in the Tacoma in preparation for the babyseat install. .

Are they the prettiest aeshetically? No. Are they well made, fit decent and fully waterproof. Yep.

I have full access to all the belts, LATCH anchors and pull handles for everything. I couldn't be happier. CoverCraft directly only shows gray and tan as options for the covers (I would have preferred a darker gray and/or black) but their box shows a charcoal gray option which I couldn't select online. Small issue for what is a good product.

 

It's very strange that during or after a disaster, the say no raising of prices or price gouging. (Mostly caused by supply and demand) however, it's ok for oil companies to raise prices up to 40 cents a gallon nationwide starting tomorrow.....let them suck it up like everyone else....sigh

 

A few minor mods lately. Thanks @rrentrop

 

Yep....
Back in the mid-seventies there were all these experts saying that by 1987 etc that the known oil supplies/reserves were going to run out....what they didn't count on was the directional oil drilling, oil 'finding' technologies got way better...as today with deep sea drilling and shale oil extraction technologies.
Gas is cheaper than most bottled water.....definitely cheaper than a gallon of whole milk. Seems like oil/gas would be way more expensive to produce....shows that by only a few cents and multi-million uses/users that it can be profitable in huge amounts.

 

Hit 50k today


Don't worry, I was super careful capturing this moment.

 

Same here. And almost through a 1/4 tank and only 14mpg?? Not good, not good..

 

Second that....

 

Brute Force Fab High Clearance with Swingout Tire Carrier.

 

I picked up my rock sliders and put them in,

Mobtown's, kick out, no fill plate. These are sweet!

 

There's a guy in town that does wraps. If I try it myself from scratch I'll most likely screw it up and it'll be a waste of money and I'll be really pissed off lol. Thanks.

 

Nice

 

Hey man, first off, so glad this is a story about property loss and no more. It's a devastating impact regardless I'm sure. Prayers to you all for some relief soon.

Second, if you can find any high velocity fans that you can leave in the vehicles while they're parked will be instrumental in getting them dried out. I'm talking about something like this:

These are what are used by professionals to dry carpet in flooding circumstances. You could put one of these on the console and aim it into the floor areas. Leave the windows open (in the garage). Another option would be to put a dehumidifier inside the cabin and keep the windows closed.

Again, thank God you all made it without personal loss.

Rob

 

Haha, same..

 

Yeah.....I did file 2 claims for the two vehicles.....no doubt at a minimum will get the carpet torn out and replaced.....
Thanks!

 

Christmas in August!

 

I know many have changed over to the OEM Pro grille and I'm likely not far behind. Is there a consensus as to who generally has the best price? I thought I saw a $368 shipped once but cannot locate that for the life of me. Maybe sleep deprivation. .

I see the Faux grille but am not sure I'm crazy about the way the "o" letters look on it. I know that sounds picky but if I'm dropping $250 for something I'm not sure about I might as well fork over another $100 for something I like. Any help would be most appreciated...
