Put the new wheels and tires on. From the Gray 20s to 18x9 +0 295/70r18 Trail Grapplers. Had to trim a bit, will see if I have to trim more over the next day or 2.

I'd say the same about your chair. That thing is badass

Just picked up a 13' XLT 4x4 a few weeks back. Got around to detailing it.

first I clayed it. Then used a meguairs orbital polisher with ultimate compound and LC cutting pad followed by 2 passes of M205 on a LC polishing pad then topped with NXT tech wax 2.0.

Results are incredible and the M205 polish really made it pop. This is tuxedo black metallic paint.

Drove the 150 for the first time in a couple weeks to get my groceries, and a tank full of 93. Got a thumbs up, and a couple waves from some other guys in 150s. Nice day, sunny, and 57, the combination of all the above makes me feel good.

Drove out to the parent's farm/ranch which is about 30 mins away to help fix one of the tractors. While there, ventured into the small town I grew up in (3000 people) and looked for houses for sale. I sure miss that small town feel where everyone in a truck gives you the two finger lift hello as you drive by.

Hauled back some "extra rich" soil for the garden.
