    I have almost 200k and was getting a slight knock because the Mobil 1 is so thin. Went to 15w40 to test it out and my truck has never ran better

    Switched to t6 5w-40 and the truck is running perfect. I probably won’t ever run another oil other than t6

    Well anybody can buy tools now to remove any locking wheel nut, I got gorilla locking nuts so at least they would have to spend more time removing them but one locking nut like yours, agreed there are a lot of thieves out there. I've got some spare gorilla nuts if your interested

    Only way to get trash barrels to the curb is between the truck & property wall. This close to the house gives me a few inches to spare so the barrels dont pinstripe the truck.

    The gorilla lugs have a grooved surface that runs the length of the lug and you take the on and off with a lug key they give you. Pretty good system for not a lot of cash here's a link. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/gor-26145ht/overview/ just an example you can look up easy for your truck
