    I did 12 years of Catholic schools (says something, don't it?), high school years were shirt and tie.

    I'm guessing there wasn't much, if anything, in the box. The ruts aren't very bad. A place I drive by every day has ruts about 6" deep from guys that can't hit their driveway backing in off the street.

    The front passenger wheel was probably the deepest where it rested. I'd say that tire was about 5" in the grass. They way he was trying to get out, I'm surprised the drives didn't sink deeper.

    What's the cost for something like this? Genuinely curious, I've never had to look into it as a 2nd gen owner.

    Now that we have nicer weather I've been working on them Moab scratches. Using Maguire's Ultimate. Taking my time and going slow. Picked up a buffer from Harbor Freight and found a small 3in pad system on Amazon. So far its looking good. From 5 feet away you can't see the scratches. Considering before I could see the scratches from 50 feet.
    Thanks for the advice :thumbsup:

    Why do you need a buffer?

    After I hit the post reply button I thought O' shit.
    Someone is going to make a comment like this.
    I thought about deleting my post.
    If I can take the Trail Limo Parts Truck remarks I can handle this.

    It is nice to have a shiny truck deliver parts and spare tires on the trail. Proceed with the buffer ;)

    Although, this is how my wifes cars get cleaned up... the auto class section does a great job when they learn about paint care...

    Same. That's why my current is gray.

    Oh! Never drink water, that stuff will corrode your insides. They use it to thin paint these days for chrissakes!
