    @EatSleepTacos- I think my Taco bit the dust. We got home from camping on Tuesday, when my wife jumped in it to move it so I could put the trailer away, it blew quite a bit of white smoke/steam out the exhaust (ambient temp was 95+degrees) along with quite a bit of liquid...checked the coolant reservoir and it is nearly empty...I suspect it has a blown head gasket....I will confirm when I do the oil change it is overdue for. I suspect it will be a chocolate milkshake. How much do you think it will affect value if I try to sell it now the way it is? Or would I be better off spending the cash to fix it before selling?

    If it is your head gasket I would honestly just sell it for whatever you can get and wipe your hands clean. A head gasket job is like $4k. Or maybe “repair” it with blue devil stuff so it’ll last long enough to sell it to a dealer.

    So I got these little VLED flush mount amber lights for offroad running lights (maybe on road once I see how bright they are in daylight) and I'm not sure where I want to mount them. These are the three ideas I've come up with, open to other ideas too.

    I like last option. Or the first option. Actually all options are good. Decisions too tough.

    The last option is definitely the easiest. The two options on the outer wings of the bumper I would need to fab some plates which would require some welding and painting. Not really a big deal but more work than just cutting out some holes next to the license plate. Decisions decisions.

    Yeah I think last option or first for sure. Might be better to have them out wider so I’d have to go with first.

    That's my only reservation with having them next to the license plate. Easier, but I think spread wider will look better. I'll have to play around with it in a bit.
