    I suppose I could always use another couple. You never know what you need to tie down/up during a quarantine...

    And remember, variety is important. Doesn't hurt to have some small straps along with some large ones.

    I feel like I should pull back, but I’m still working, and with more flexibility I’m inclined to push forward the schedule. Been planning on doing a stereo in my truck for awhile, but I need the time. Now I do haha.

    Then I'm sure you're overpaying like all the other panicking folks out there who are rushing all the gun shops. Sensible people know that during a crisis is the absolute worst time to buy anything having to do with guns. Sellers inflate prices the moment a crisis hits and then laugh all the way to the bank. Smart people buy when everything is calm and no one else is buying.

    Not to mention the fools who are out there hording toilet paper and everything else they can get their greedy little hands on, which means the poor, elderly and shut-ins who actually need supplies and can't afford to bulk buy don't have anything they need because assholes are buying up everything in sight instead of just getting what they need. Nothing like a crisis to remind us all, once again, just how selfish, greedy and ignorant most people are.

    At least in cali, a lot of places are offering early entry for folks 65+
    But yeah, a lot could’ve been prevented if people just chilled the hell out. Instead people are acting like it’s WW3, we can still go outside people! just wash your dam hands and don’t horde shit!

    I've already purchased my mods, but haven't had time to install. I'd still purchase if I didn't already. Every bit helps especially for the small businesses. I'm just doing my part to keep the businesses I like....in business!

    Ha, I just bought the same parts, along with a SSO Armagedon bumper with Stage 2 kit and a Heretic light bar, and a Warn winch with synthetic rope. Then I also placed an order for a second SSO bumper, but this time I bought their new one piece hybrid bumper. This was all in the last couple weeks. The worse thing we can do is to stop spending, that will make a lot of these small companies go out of business (big companies too).
