    Tell her not to open the door with her left hand… but then she will be upset with all the rules for the truck. I’m definitely not talking from experience or anything.

    Been dealing with moisture in my driver side OEM LED headlight. Popped the cover off of the bottom set up the leaf blower underneath. Successfully dried it out. Removed and cleaned the cover gasket and reinstalled. Later I did a rinse less wash on the truck and immediately saw moisture again. So there must be a bad seal around the lens. Anyone have experience resealing?

    Rotated the tires, have a look at this front going to rear today. Would you guys replace tires at this point, or wait some more miles? How many miles would you wait in this case?

    I would replace them. But I live in the PNW and winter is coming. You live in Florida. I would probably give it a few more miles. Just me.

    If you can afford I would replace. You always need traction dry or wet. It seems you're in Florida so no snow or black ice, but you get rain. If your budget is tight you might squeeze a few more miles out of them but I would save for replacements. Looks like your alignment is out too.

    Yeah, these tires would be scary in winter conditions.

    I might be headed for a northern state this fall, I hope to have them replaced before then. Beginning the search for a sale soon.

    Good eye on the alignment, that's a long story. This is the worst alignment issue I've ever been in but it will be addressed before new tread is put on. Dealer effed up the alignment a whileback, then I replaced lca bushings with polyurethane which turned out to be crap and only recently did I recognize the root cause and that was corrected this weekend.

    Thanks.

    Must be autumn, because I've got the rake

    halfway through installing suspension lift and thought the extra 2 inches in the rear was amusing

    Started rewiring my bed winch. Before it was just hooked to a lead acid battery that was mounted near the front of the bed. Worked great, but froze pretty easy in the winter, and was a pain to make sure it was charged all the time so I could pull my ice gear up the ramps.
    So, I have replaced the ring terminals on the winch power lines with a giant anderson plug, I have a flush mount anderson plug that I want to put in the bed near the front, then wire it up to the main battery with a cut off switch.

    I have these from my days in Ohio. I would use them when shoveling my sloped driveway and rarely feel like my feet were slipping out. I still keep mine in the glove box of my truck in AZ.

    Pretty slick! Well not really just the opposite. Thanks, I may look into those.It's better than the alternative; broken Hip, broken arm, or busted tooth.

    I grew up in ohio columbus, so I know how those winters can be
