Love the seat covers you purchased...they look great. However I have to laugh as you listed an extended warranty in your signature as a mod...a warranty is not a mod

I picked up a set of Rebel wheels and tires today, great shape with plenty of mileage left on the tires. All for the fabulous price of $700. I paid another $100 to have the tpms moved over along with a balance at a Ram dealer. Can’t beat that deal anywhere. On the 2 hour ride back I lost maybe a little over 1 mpg but the ride was nice and noise minimal.

Installed this Vitesse Throttle controller. I had this same brand in my 2013 Camaro 1LE, and it worked great with no problem, so decided to get one for the Ram 1500! Install was easy, like the quick response feel from the Ram now. One more gadget added to the dash!

Finally done compounding, polishing, and applying Adam’s graphene ceramic coating. Took about 26 hours work total from decon wash to finishing the coating. I used car pro ironX, speed clay 2.0, clean slate soap, griots complete compound, sonar perfect finish, a variety of microfiber cutting pads, and a black foam polishing pad. Overall I like the product, the UV light helps determine where the product has been applied already. I applied this to all paint, trim, and glass. It really makes the trim pop. More pictures to come if we get a sunny day here in Seattle again..

Did you find the UV light both as helpful and frustrating as me? It was nice to be able to see where I had laid it down on the white finish, but it also drove my perfectionist side crazy trying to level it and make it look even under the UV.

Yeah the UV is helpful but definitely never looks even under it. After a while I stopped using it, it was really difficult to see the bluish color on granite crystal paint. I just made sure I knew where my sections started and stopped.

Using your logic...I just bought GAS and TRUCK Insurance through State Farm...I guess I need to update my signature

Pre-ordered my winch this time I’m going with a superwinch SX 10000SR , then i still need to order my hidden winch mount . I had very good luck with Superwinch on a previous Jeep.

I saw someone post that they had changed the cabin air filter the other day, then someone commented about it needing changed every 15k miles. I'm at 16k and didn't know about it, so got one from O'Reilly's. That was dirtier than I thought it'd be.

 

[securityguy]

I believe they say to change it every 15K, but that's also based on where you live and the type of environment you drive in. I just make it a record to change my engine and cabin filters every 15K miles like I change my oil every 5K. Everyone's got a preference...do what you feel is best.

We've had a lot of construction, plus, living in Georgia, there's a lot of pollen. At least I know it's there, now, and easy to do.

Yeah I got another 14 gauge extension cord and cut the end off of the cord and the NOCO and spliced them together, but the cord I got was too short and I still had to run the heater block cord under the truck, I suggest finding a 20ft+ 14 gauge extension cord that way you can run the cord all the way into the engine bay and just plug it in, I plan on doing that in the summer once the snow is gone.

I mounted the plug on the rear of my truck, just to the left of the license plate and ran the wiring (extension cord) along the frame from back to front and into the engine compartment. No more having to open the hood every time I plug my truck in! The Noco plug blends in nicely on the back bumper and makes it even easier for me to plug my truck in since I always back into my driveway. Noco Plug with 6' cord (GCP1E), added a 16.5' extension cord and it was the perfect length to reach into the engine compartment to the short block heater cord. I used Self Fusing Tape to seal the Noco plug to the extension cord.

Thanks for the size up, sounds good. Have you thought about adding a battery tender with the set up?

That sounds like a good idea thanks! Great, one job done and another on the list.. lol

You remind me of my 69 year old sister who for the first time owns a house. She gets frustrated with the constant "issues". I have told her to think of the constant up keep like her heart, issues will be there as long as her heart is beating and then it will be somebody else's problem and heart beat.

Yeah - the forum is great for ideas and spending my sons' inheritance.
Truly sorry for adding to the list, I feel the pain.

Keep us posted, I have some thoughts but have not explored the placement of the battery tender. Oh yeah the dealer quoted me $545 before tax for parts and labor for the block heater. They really didn't need the work I figured.
