geekhouse23's "LIFE'S WAITING TO BEGIN" Overland & Home build and all the Adventures in between!

Wait till you use it. Feels so much safer on concrete/asphalt.

 

Hi lift pad looks good dude! Haven't tried mine yet but it's on the high lift all the time.

 

For sure. Had to use it one night..40*, 11:30pm, frost on the pavement..without the pad. NEVER AGAIN.

Thanks man! Can't wait to use it!!

 

Shopping adventures with my wife



That's a full outdoor patio sectional in the bed and a ceramic fire pit strapped down to my Prinsu roof rack..she never ceases to amaze me..and my wife's pretty keen too

 

It's just starting haha

 

It'll be a mini van with 3 baby seats a'fore you know what hit you......

 

Haha yea right..this thing is the closest I'll get to a minivan..that ain't happening and she knows it

 

Famous last words......I went from a small block Chevy powered Jeep CJ7 with 40"'s to a Ford Aerostar van and 2 kids so fast it about made my head spin.

 

Hi?

PHOTO DUMP:

2 weekends ago, we had a wedding in Michigan, so we took the truck on a mini road trip!












The happy couple(s):



The wife wanted an outdoor sectional and new fire pit. So here's how you stay #EAF but still make the wife happy



And of course a pic of everything setup..for @scottalot



Memorial Day weekend dump:









Got to test the Thule snowboard racks with fishing poles and it worked PERFECT!





Zen...


Caitlyn working



The sketchy rolling meth lab with shit brakes my brother-in-law drove 5 hours to the Indy 500 and back in..you could hear Heisenberg yelling at Pinkman...



Caitlyn, my brother-in-law's mall crawler Heep and the Polaris we all go to whip around in over the weekend:



Other activities included jet skiing and wakeboarding

Truck update:

Not much going on now. Need to start installing all the items I have sitting in the garage collecting dust.

I think I will be removing the sticker bomb from the Prinsu fairing for now and come back to it later when I can get it cleared. Also, I think it's time to trim some of the front fender flares. I rub where the mudflaps mount pretty hard just driving on the street and entering parking lots so I might take that line all the way up front to back. Or see if I can swing fake bushwackers off eBay with the wife and trim the fenders and flares 1". We shall see!

[RANT] by the way, I hate that T-talk is no longer supported. This took forever to post on my phone on the web browser. Anyone using anything different? I wish they released the TW app first before removing T-talk support [/RANT]

 

She ain't no poser with 35's and armor sittin in the driveway

 

Someone say posers on 35's sitting in the driveway

 

Oh it's me I'm sure

 

Just a few of today's activities...




Mod to help out the backseat homies..




Helped @GARSHA91 earn some much needed #EAF points today..

 

Scored a bed platform AND futon mattress for it..



It's for a 6' bed Tacoma so it will require some finessing and cutting, have to be shortened more for my rail mounted spare, and have to be lined with some outdoor carpeting to get it looking #EAF but, hey, it was FREEEEEEEEEE!!!

 

Free, better get the blacklight out and check it for stains!

 

No kidding..might get something a little better quality since I'm not digging the orange. Something perhaps really durable and waterproof. Father-in-law use to do vehicle interiors and still makes money in his free time reappolstering boat interiors.

Excited to get this project off the ground..pricing things out is easy when it was all free and planned "upgrades" are gonna cost little to no money to do..happy wife happy life holds true again..

 

Thanks Nathan!! @SMKYTXN



Also just got word on my way to work this morning that my RTIC 65 shipped and should be here in 2 day I am hopeful, but kinda doubt it will be here.

I am hopeful so I can maybe test it out this weekend on a wheelin trip
