Autogeek runs some pretty good specials on microfibers. I typically use bulk type microfibers for things like interior cleaning and wax removal. Waffle weave microfibers area really great for window cleaning. For drying towels, I like them to have the layers stitched together. If they...
Keep your truck wet throughout the washing process. Drying in the sun is a challenge, especially with a black vehicle. Use a drying aid or "wet wax" type product and a microfiber towel specifically designed for drying. As you work through drying body panels with your drying towel and product...
That is not an easy paintless dent repair. My advice is to find a very reputable PDR guy who has experience working with aluminum as it's much different that working with steel. Aluminum is easy to stretch, and if that happens, it won't ever look the same.
If everything goes "right", then you're probably fine and shouldn't do any damage to the truck. If things go "wrong", you run the risk of encountering an unsafe, hazardous, or catastrophic situation. Should you be in an accident, and it's identified you're over payload, you could have a real...
I pressure wash the vehicle, then foam. Leave the foam in place and hand wash. The foam helps lift surface contaminates and enhances lubrication during hand washing to limit scratching. I use a cheap Amazon foam canon. I find that making the spray pattern wide and during down the flow...

If you don't already have a polisher: Griot's Garage G9 random orbital polisher
Paint Correction: Griot's Garage BOSS Correcting Cream with a blue Lake Country pad
Polishing/Finishing: Griot's Garage BOSS Finishing Sealant...

Check out Bissell SpotClean Pro. It's not exactly a "shampooer", it's an extractor. Use an upholstery cleaner and a drill brush, then use extractor. Extractors don't use soap - the goal is to "extract" the soap from the carpet fibers - you shouldn't leave soap behind after cleaning. There...
I had mine sprayed professionally with Krown a couple months after I bought it. After that, I have been maintaining it myself by applying Fluid Film. If you go with Krown, a tip is to wipe down any rubber with silicone to keep the Krown from penetrating and making it sag. Some of the areas...
I like the 2020 because it has the Off-Road Package. Flame red with all that chrome is quite visually stimulating; I like the Delmonico red better. Tough decision with the 2020 having more miles though.
