You sir are a hero, some people don't have any business owning animals. Hell some people don't even have any business having kids.
NICE SAVE!!

Cool

I swapped out my Stock battery after 95,000 miles and 6 years for a Optima RED top.

Brought home a twin for the 2013 xlt, picked up the new 2013 fx4 today for my wife.
Eco in both, both Screw and both 4x4.

Fx4 has max tow and luxury package and both are sterling silver, now I can steal her tailgate for the steps for my work truck.
She gets the easy down instead.

Got my truck back today. Dealer called to say it was done earlier in the week but I was out of town. They fixed the noise, but it was a hassle.

They had to resurface all my rotors, order and install new front hub bearing assembly, Lube/clean rear brake calipers and brackets, machined rear brake rotors. Oh and they put 50 miles on my truck in the week they had it. I'm not too pleased with the amount of miles added. Truck seems ok now, hope I get no more problems. I love the truck!

got tired of looking at the faded plastic and started painting some of it. excuses the messed up looking parts of the front bumper. the paint was still a little wet and it was a b to get the paint to lay there also.

I used a plastic primer and rustoleum. the guy i talked to recommended that route because the rustomleum would give me the best wear being on the front of the truck.
