    Does anyone run a wrecker/emergency lightbar on their truck? I'm outfitting a service truck and I was wondering what the best way to mount a lightbar would be.

    I have one on my first gen, but I use the gutter mounts. Was hoping someone had a rack-mount/headache system.

    Parked in garage but didn't pull in all the way. :( Some superficial scratches in the tailgate paint ... the backup mirror bracket took the brunt.

    Proceeded to hang racket ball on a string from the ceiling as a go/no go gauge.

    Thanks @somebody (from gar-fab). I just installed my tailgate cover. It’s a great fit and I appreciate the great communication, quick shipping to Alberta, and the excellent packaging. I’m a very happy customer!

    Please don't use acetone on plastic. Yes, it will clean it but dull and soften it out so fast.

    Mine is a used 2017, bought it a month ago. Stickers ripped every half inch or so and left 80% of their residue behind... Also on a hot day. Not fun.

    Not today exactly, but put on a coat of wax and finally got a picture. Installed the Victory rack I purchased last week from a fellow forum member and painted the stock cheese grater. I'll upgrade at some point but for now, it came out pretty well, and the march to eliminate chrome continues.

    Painted the grill? Was it chrome or just faded? Mines a dull gray and have thought of coating with something more black. Looks like it would be difficult to prep.

    The trim ring was chrome, the majority of it was a kind of dark tinted chrome. It really didn't look bad and I would've just painted the ring if it weren't for a few rock chips I had from road trips to AZ. They flaked off the coating and there were bright chrome spots coming through so I took it apart and painted everything but the logo/TSS.

    I made a couple of pilgrimages out west last year, that was on Schnebly Hill Rd in Sedona. Made for a more interesting profile shot than my driveway

    Look at that view.

    I can’t think of a better spot to go poo

    maybe a volcano but that’s risky. Just added to my bucket list though

    Added these 'bicycle' lights to the struts of my diamondback cover. I wanted a cheap...I mean inexpensive...option for a red light to use during hunting season. These are easily removable and rechargeable. So far they seem to work pretty well for $15.
