    After sound deadening the doors on my 2012, I set about doing the doors on the 17. Luckily the doors are 1- cleaner inside and 2- wider, width wise so easier to get a hand in there

    The results are pretty amazing. Below 40mph it’s very quiet - almost creepily. Once over 40 there is some road noise - so I guess I need to do the roof next. Very pleased with the results though.

    Took the truck camping - and offroad it’s wild how quiet it was creeping around.

    Again an overnighter - this one yielding - spotting of some long horned sheep, a very low flying military helo, kid using the new sleeping platform and an all around great evening under the stars

    Yes we have been repeating a campsite, mostly because it’s ‘easy’ to get to, has a great view and the road to a few of our favorite sites was closed a little while ago -
