Finished up my reverse/flood light install. For anyone interested they’re just the typical white Amazon rock lights used as puddle lights and the reverse lights. 4 on each side of the truck on the frame rails and 4 flush mounted in the rear bumper. These aren’t some super bright show quality lights, but they’re inexpensive and almost give off an OEM+ appearance. If you need back up lights to illuminate more than 10ft then get some more substantial lights though haha
Actually looks great for being such small lights. I’ve been planning much larger spots, but haven’t figured out a good place for larger lights. This might be the better approach.

Just out of the touchless wash at the local gas station (gotta get that salt residue off). Bask in the glory of the 10 minutes my all black truck looks better than yours! 😆

Tons of salt up here as well, I did the same thing as you today since it finally warmed up. Until that point I was rocking a beautiful nautical looking two tone with my patriot blue on top and completely salty lower. Nice to get it clean before the next cold front comes in.

take the time to paint the trim ring while you have it out…. Doesn’t look right to me with silver all the way around but then again I have the night edition.. and yes, it is super easy to install….

Are you serious with that fuel economy?! That's unreal! I'm lucky to have 15, and I have the same engine / differential. You're in ecoDiesel territory.
I average 26 mpg with my Ecodiesel and that's around town. I will lose my bumper to bumper in a few weeks when I hit 36000 but I still have my powertrain until 100K.

We have nearly identical trucks and I'm getting 17.5 in the summer. That's with 33's. Your signature doesn't show if you have bigger tires.
