I have a small strip left the width of the windshield so I might add a lower tint strip yet too.
What is that? Limo tint or 15% ?

5% but it's just cheap auto store tint. Comparing it to my moms van that has 5% professional tint on the back it's not as dark.

^ agree on the ramps, maybe you should put some channel on the side to help from it tipping?


how high are those?

No, one front wheel spins, and throws a ramp at the middle of the truck.

Lol, True! Didn't think about not having a locker. I hate my ramps. I have to get someone who trusts me with their life to put a foot against the ramps so they don't slide on the concrete. I finally put an old piece of tire under the leading edge of the ramps so when the front tires put the slightest amount of pressure on them, they hold a little better. They still suck!

I have to use the edge of my garage to keep it from moving. crappy part is you have to work outside instead of inside
