I'm at least curious why i won't take it off? I've not had issues getting it off other tyres.


Truck looks nice and shiny in that picture though It's good to see the paint again.

We cleaned up the truck. I was planning on hitting it with the Meguiars Instant Ceramic again, but the water still beads-up like crazy. I had to look back and that stuff has been on there for 18 months! It's still slick and shiny!

And no, I don't bother doing the tires. I'm off-road too much








He we are a daybreak by the duck pond and on the way for some search and rescue drills.

My bud dropped my tailgate the other day...BOOM!

"I thought all these trucks had them dampeners, whoops!"

So, me and Quigley purchased a Dee Zee and installed it. I really never saw the need for one, but I don't like folks slamming down my tailgate.

Haha, yeah, i never understood why anyone would let their gate drop - and because i never did, i didn't see the need for one until my Wife opened the gate, not to drop it, but something heavy was leaning against it from the inside, and it nearly crushed her as it opened

Nice piece of engineering. Too bad the rest of the truck is ugly as sin.

Dean,
Did you notice if you lower it and forget you have a receiver on the carrier, your tailgate gets a GIANT dent. Not such a great design really.

Wow, that took a long time to get a very short look at an edit deployment of the step, and yeah, it does look snazzy i guess, but that's a good point about the hitch

Good point. Hard to believe though if you have a hitch that could happen. Anyway, I just think it's an entertaining commercial.
