    Yes it is. Need a newer one? Same truck, same wheels and tires just other stuff on there that is different.

    Lol, I know!


    I got my second Corona shot yesterday. Other than a sore arm (not from the vaccine but from the woman who thought she was throwing darts not admitting medicine) and yawning a bunch of times this morning, I feel fine!

    Here's a picture of the shiniest my truck has ever been. This right after I was done detailing it. This was in 2014 so my truck was 5yo at the time

    Mine is about the same as a friend's Silverado, so maybe someone did make changes to yours. That said, I'm not sure what the tongue weight on that is - the ATV was near the front and the lighter lawn tractor was near the back which could make the tongue heavier than if I actually tried to keep it well balanced.

    Just the ATV in the bed (~600 lbs) doesn't make it sag too bad. That's about the threshold where it starts dropping quick though.

    Got my new wetvac Friday and after I cleaned the dog stains off of the couch I did the same with my truck. Thing works awesome. It even pulled a coffee stain out of the passenger seat of the truck that the GF put there the first week that I had it :rolleyes:
    So now I can open the passenger door without getting all :rant:

    But, of course, I got into it with muddy feet yesterday so now the driver's floor mat is dirty again and needs another cleaning :anonymous:


    Don't be a wuss; that puddle has swan dive potential if you do it right.

    But will it pull dog hair our of a car interior?

    I mean it's all soft decomposing swamp/ plant matter/ leaves so a swan dive while messy would probably be fine. Besides all the old tree stumps under there.

    That was after a full hand wash, polish & then synthetic wax. Lol

    Lol. Nope, it's MGM grey!

    Sounds like fun but I can't commit right now

    Yes and no. It doesn't have a powered scrubber in the wet nozzle, but on the 'dry' setting it has a brush-style attachment and enough torque to lift all of the white doggo hairs off of my black carpets.

    When we went to the girlfriend's cousin's for Christmas Eve and she poured her a coffee to go in some cheap disposable holiday themed cup. We were just getting onto the Pike when it started leaking badly. I could tell something was wrong but she wouldn't say what and she was saying it was fine as she was wincing from the 200 degree (why is coffee served at molten lava temperatures - I don't drink it and don't understand) liquid on her skin. I pulled over and she dumped it out before it burned her even more and got everywhere. Then I spent hours the next day getting the coffee smell out of the truck.

    I'm a super easy going person, but acting like there's no problem as you're getting burnt is not a better solution than just telling me to pull over. Also, that eliminated my new truck smell.

    Well I hope many of you had a good mother's day. Mine ended at hasbro hospital. Daughter somehow had a stick go in her eye. Well drops and ointment should make it better. It then swelled and has discharge. Now she'll be getting surgery....stay away from sticks folks!
