What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Guilty at times.
When I do it I try to delete it immediately. Dohh!

 

Ahh, planting the seed?

 

Been there done that as well.

 

Indeed

 

plastidipped bumper caps and bezel for now

 

Changed to getting personal shipments at work, since I manage the shipping/receiving dept.

Installed my helper air bags last week and took it up into the mountains for the weekend. Cooler weather, even colder beverages, and a happy pooch resulted.

 

Looked like fun.
Having your purchases sent to work?
Devious!

"Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive."

I wonder what Sir Walter Scott was modifying?

 

As long as I am not BUYING personal items for my truck with my company card. And, I arranged it with security...not going to push any limits with my finances! Also, porch pirates don't stand a chance at work!

Dog has gone 3 different times, and it's funny when we start hovering around it...she gets all antsy and excited "I'm going camping!!!" Luckily for her, we haven't left her behind yet...yet! Next month though...sad times for Mishka.

 

Crap, could have sold you mine for 1/2 price.

 

Did you do the bumper caps on the truck? I was thinking about doing this, just did not want to remove them.

 

Washed her this weekend.

 

Installed the sprint booster, love it. Highway driving is enjoyable now.

 

Do let us know what you think after you've had awhile. What settings are you using? I assume your dash picture is the controller. It is different than what their web page shows.

Testing out an aftermarket 31" FM antenna (center). For me the "sharkfin" performance has always been terrible, and it is really just a decorative toy. I'm sick of the FM dropping in and out of HD...will post my results after some testing in different environmental conditions. If this works out, I plan to install a power retractable. As I recently disconnected the worst than useless XM completely (to hide the screen icon), my shark fin will become obsolete, as it was on the engineering table. Whomever convinced the engineers that a coil was the same as a vertical obviously only uses streaming near cities with good cell phone coverage and does not rely on reception.

Left is the magmount CB...usually stowed unless I'm rolling with CBs. The shorter one also left is the scanner.
Center is the 31" FM, testing for max reception height. (My prefered station's 1/4 wavelength)
Right (Forward) is my dual band Ham, on its power raise/lower mount.

 

I made all my emblems red anodized as well at the wheel caps to match my ToyTec suspension today. Finished it with a light clear coat to keep it nice.

 

I did mine on the truck. Just masked everything off and sprayed about 7 or 8 light coats. It lasted over three years.
Then last week I removed them and the plasti dip and color matched them. Broke one of the clips in the process. If I could go back I would have just left them on and sprayed them.

 

I have it set on Sport 4 and I’ve had it a week. It’s definitely touchy and it will take some getting used to. But on the highway when you need your truck to respond it responds.

 

Damn you talk to any aliens yet?
