    Took a ride to work to grab some tools and the parking lot next door was roped off. There was a shooting last night and police are investigating. :eek:

    Do you let him drive it? Would be so sick to have my dad let me drive a Tesla. Of course, golf carts were the only electric vehicles when I was a kid.

    Mirrors are wired for heat and back in the truck. Now I need to buy the heated glass this week. I also just installed the new headlight bulbs, took longer than I anticipated.

    My wife makes them from time to time during the winter months (too hot with the oven on in the summer). Yum.

    Good Monday morning CT. Hope everyone is doing well.

    I'm going to try and lube my upper control arms (and torque the nut properly) on lunch today. I may even put some grease on my leafs.
    It's either that or install the new sway bar end links which are going to be a pain to remove.

    Hopefully my lift doesn't have a car on it during lunch.

    Tested the new headlight bulbs last night when picking up food. A lot better than stock and better then the other bulbs I bought. I should've looked at the spare set of headlights I have before ordering. That's where the Sylvania Silverstar Ultra's were. I put my stock bulbs in the spare set.
