    Ahh

    yeah you just wanna make sure something doesn’t catch the cord.. that’ll be a bad time.

    I had mine in the driver side cubby. Eventually moved it to the driver side in the cab after I got the seat delete.

    With reasonable temps (ambient and fridge), 2 days is usually no problem.

    get a cascadia4x4 solar panel and it’ll run forever

    No quite Weaksauce stuff, but I have been having fun this spring helping these guys. As a friend said, just a gomer that knows lefty loosey, righty tighty. :rofl::rofl:

    It is killer to be very up close.







    Looking forward to possibly helping with this vintage monster:

    Yeah. Got a bunch of straps in the case for rolly stuff. Protecting the app module is my main goal. It will be interesting the first time that I load a pallet. The panel seems to be in a good place. I also have to check in time to see how it does with weather.

    The fridge will have to live in the cab or outside when camping. A bit too loud to snuggle with.

    Folks said that they accidentally went over 4days with no trouble. I will likely get an AGM battery next time.

    The hood panel is on my mind. We'll see.

    :cheers:

    I'm on the same boat. Funny how I always tend to think "After this, I'm done.":anonymous:

    I need to just stop telling myself that. Of course, the severe lack of sliders and some damn good luck have paid off, so far. I'm waiting to hear what @Buttskevin21 is up to on that front, once he gets his shop going.

    Have you been to the hydroplane museum in Kent? (Maybe that's where that picture is from?) It's been a while since I was there, but there were lots of restorations going on and plenty of cool things to look at.

    I have not but have wanted to go for a long time.

    The hydro shop is in Tukwila and that vintage shop is in Kent, but it is not the museum. It could be a museum though, as the stuff that they have there, boats, engines, and memorabilia, is pure, jaw-on-the-floor stuff.

    The guy that runs that shop said to see how I fit in the boat. I was laughing my ass off. They ran it a couple weekends back on Lake WA.

    The old guy and his truck.

    Finally got annoyed enough of not being able to open the windows in the rain whether parked or driving. Always felt that vent visors, while practical, were always an old guy's mod. Well . . .

    The logo was killing me though.

    Sorry, no pics, but installed a knock-off TG Lock Harness. It seems to be very nice quality and has worked well. The reviews are correct though, the starnut is slightly too large to grip the stud on the lock arm. I just hammered it flat and pressed it on. It is doing well.

    Best price these days, I suppose:

    I had a set of those on my Tacoma.. I keep forgetting to order some for the tundra

    they also do a good job blocking the sun right at the top of the window instead of blinding you

    I haven't noticed much with the sun yet, but it does move the air flow away from my ear with the window open, so that is very nice. The left one does block my view of stoplights for the cross streets. No big deal there. No sightline issues either. So, they are all around positive. Looking forward to the rainy weather.
