What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

That’s a little excessive but also an astringent, deserves a pass.

 

too much lift.....you can't see the parking space lines now

 

Probably overloaded it. LOL
Headed to mountains to start a job. More tie downs to come. Probably should have rented a trailer. Arrived in 1 piece with all my shit.

 

As we talk about emergency preparedness, I would recommend this. https://www.stopthebleed.org/
I have been through the instructor's course but I don't instruct. A lot more people bleed out than you are told. The Las Vegas Route 91 Shooting is an example. It's also good to know for those of us that travel off road. If I can help anyone please let me know.

 

the 2025 tundra has lights on the tailgate so i guess its going to be a new "mod" for the raptor boy club

ladies and gentlemen ...... introducing "the tundra lights"

 

Ligma?

 

It feels like there’s an unofficial competition between truck manufacturers to see who can make the most complex and expensive version of what should have been one of the most utilitarian of parts: the tailgate. Up next, the 2026 Ford F150 Raptor: Rube Goldberg edition!

 

That may be open cell foam, but check it out, the outer skin is NOT OPEN, and I think you just made a considerable restriction to air-flow of those vents. Not the kind that will matter to the heating blower, but could be of concern for ear-drum damage on air bag deployment. Might be worth considering.

I hung a curtain of felt behind my back panel with similar sound deadening butyl, made a noticeable difference, next step for me is to adhere 1/4" foam to the backside of the rear panels.

 

Kind of neat, are they also brake lights?

 

Far easier to swap wheels and tires than wrangling rubber twice a year.
BTW: looks like you are in for a green Christmas in K-W.

 

I have Quikclot in my 1st aid kit. The only thing I'm missing really is sutures.

 

Did the oil and oil filter change, as well as tire rotation etc. today at 58700km. While at it, I ran two cable sets from the aux fuse box to the cabin for future use.

 

Can you provide the link?

 

And the dual cab lights. Do those also function as turn signals?

Couldn’t help noticing the car lot flag to the left. Has this already made it to ‘used car’ status?

 

Added a little weight to the back for winter.

 

That snow isn’t really that heavy.

 

No it isn't but the 140lbs of sand should do the trick.

 

I didn't fully enclose the vents, the sides are open (hard to tell in the shadow of the picture) and it actually didn't matter to the doors closing or the flow of air from the through the cabin. Yes, I suppose airbag deployment could be a potential issue. Will think about that when I do my 2023.

 

@Odlcjro01 - Curious about how you keep them bags from sliding around?

 

Probly frozen in place by now.

Thanks for bringing up the sound deadening issue again assholes. Now everytime I go down the road I’m listening for offending noise. Seems to be coming from the road…. More from my door than the rest of the cab. Or just more evidence that I’m still going deaf…might look into this foam dealio but probably not worth my time. Waiting patiently on my Borla. That’ll drown out anything I don’t want to hear. Murica!

The raptor light poperazzi strikes again with ones in the rear now incase you didn’t see the ones in the grill right above the million lumen yellow fog lights

Nothing wrong with a first aid kit but don’t be fooled by the dude laying on the ground in a stupor. Chances are he’s enjoying a leisurely high on heroin and doesn’t want mouth to mouth.
