    Ahh

    But yeah, he's a bit of a chunker for sure.

    Poor guy only eats twice a day a specified amount of food.

    He's lost maybe 2lbs over the last 4 months though.

    Post-trip bath. I drove through some salty crap in NC as usual, even with fluid film, feels good to hose under the guts a little.

    Agreed

    Same reason a I'll always try to have a manual in the fleet unless I lose a leg or something. Just more enjoyable of an experience for me.

    Just don't get a rack that you have to drill the roof for. If it's removable without damaging the roof then I say go for it.

    This is why I want to add a manual. I was worried about commuting in one in traffic, but I've come around on going for it.

    I have the removable Yakima I've tried but don't like it, I was going to do another Front Runner, and its drill through. I was a minute away from ordering one but after a few trips with the longer boards up top, like below, that's 9'8", and only maybe 18" of it overhung the cab, I've been leaning against not doing it. I thought it'd be nice for firewood or bags and lighter stuff, but after paying to have that roof repainted and knowing you ran one and took it off, I've gone back to nope, not worth it.

    Who wants to come help me with this. I'm so tired of scraping and brushing. But I'm halfway done now.

    Yeah I'll always advise against the permanently mounted ones like mine. Unless it's necessary for carrying more around.

    Mine did come in handy for securing large objects when having to put them on top of my bed rack. The roof rack offered useful tie down points. Without the roof rack now I'll likely get rid of my bed rack soon as well. Need the open bed space back for the occasional hauling of things. No sense in having a pickup truck if you have to use a RAV4 instead because the pickup can't fit anything in the back lol.

    I went the other way, after having trucks I could fit anything in (van and 8ft foot bed pickup) I had the Cruiser which you couldn't fit that stuff in followed by this truck, so now I go with, "If its that big I'll rent a trailer or a UHaul," haha.

    How did a jetboat suddenly sink without an intake manifold, valve covers, and carbs?
