    Oh there will be some mods all right
    I should probably create a new thread for all that eh?! Only issue with that is that I didn't hang on to any of them long-term so I have no experience with how well any of them wear or how well the compounds hold up over time lol

    That's a cold morning, but at least you didn't have to brush the snow off your breakfast plate.


    Truck's looking great Dean! Glad to hear the new tires are working out.

    That's fine. But, I would be remiss in my duties if I didn't give you a hard time. :D

    I thought everyone knew that back in '21, though. :notsure:

    If anyone here has a green 3rd gen with a cap and was heading eastbound on 94 into downtown Milwaukee this morning a little before 6am; your headlights are ridiculous. Looked like drop in LED's, or maybe just had the brights on. :notsure:

    Either way, it was obnoxious.

    Highly doubt it was anyone on here. The LED sticky thread is mandatory reading.

    What if I don’t do it for performance, but just convenience? I swear, it won’t be for love!

    After all, It might be harder to get a 4.0 in 30 years, and by then LS swap kits will probably be the cockroaches of the engine replacement world. It’ll be like oil filters…you could pick up a crate LS at Walmart. Even Teslas will probably have LS swap kits by then too
    :rofl:

    It won't matter by then. We'll all be driving government issued self driving Priuses and eating a strict diet of Soylent Green and Soylent Cow-pies. Any thoughts or desires about ICE engines will be punished instantly through our cattle prod implants.

    At least your tire addiction is cheap compared to new vehicles every year

    Seems everyone wants to get LEDs from Walmart and blind the shit out of people. It’s a problem here too.

    also it seems like everyone has a utv now too which can be just as bad if not worse

    Currently enjoying a Culver's burger outside of Oshkosh on the way back home. I'll post my initial thoughts on the tires later and share a bit about a little side adventure with my buddy Nick today. :thumbsup:
