Here ya go goneFXcrazy and @SchoenFX413
A picture of my sweetheart. His name is Reddix

LOL...Oh no. No Carolina Squat for my Reddix. I don't plan on being the laughing stock of the forum...ha ha ha. Honestly, I don't like it or how it look with the front end looking high in the air. It makes you wonder where the heads are shining at night? Up in the trees some where? LOL
Ya long drives are fine at first, then you just get sick of it... Meh, it's hwy miles, as long as you don't plan on selling it anytime soon, only problem will be in your head seeing those numbers rack up. Kids need their parents at home, at least you can be there for the weekends. I remember my dad would be gone for two months at a time and I thought that was hard. I can only imagine what it's like for military families. I have an incredible amount of respect for mothers (and fathers) that are left behind with the children while the spouse is deployed.

Reddix. Great name. I still haven't come up with one for mine.... I need help on that.

Maybe they stick a 40" rigid LED bar somewhere in the front suspension? Or my suggestion in another post, maybe they drive in reverse everywhere? Idk lol

I use Hi-Temp products from TopofTheLine.com machine applied with a Porter Cable 7424 orbital polisher.

He's right, it is a beautiful truck, I mean girl. I mean girl truck.

Great color combo, simple and elegant, with a little evil on the side.

@goneFXcrazy I have no problem with the driving part. I used to be a long distance truck driver for 13 years before changing careers and going into IT. So I have drove across the country and back too many times to count. I just need to be home now for my little ones. They are 3 and 4 years old.

I so love the Chronicles of Riddick and watched that series so many times, so when I got my red truck I just changed the name up a bit and named him Reddix. Yeah pick a name that unique and special to you.

Thank you for the compliments, I picked that color because I am a huge Ohio State fan, so it was just right for my OSU colors.

@SchoenFX413 Thank you. When I looked on the Internet, they had 3 red ones, but this one was the only one with the two tone color. Plus OSU colors...Oh yeah. I'll take him.
I am bad when it comes to waxing vehicles. It is exhausting. I take him to Cactus Car wash when I'm here in Charleston and let them clean him up and polish him.

Cactus does a good job. I also like Mammoth but they are pricey.

Cactus? Mammoth? Feels like I'm watching NatGeo with these car wash names!

we might have to re think that meet up... LOL.

JK, I got nothing against any schools... except Georgia... and Florida... and Clemson... LOL

Truck does look good.

As to washing... I washed my truck once or twice. Waxed it once... I ran out of car wash soap so I've been putting it off and just reminding myself that the dirt goes with the FX4 stickers. LOL

I was actually surprised how quickly I managed to wax the truck, and I did it by hand too. I really want to get a buffer. I would actually keep up with it if it wasn't for the fact that I have to do it by hand. SUCKS. (If you can't tell, I don't pay people to wash my vehicles.)
