Had to go to town for the boy to get new football cleats, so I picked up supplies for another oil change. I'm just shy of 20k miles and this will be my 4th oil change already ( I do every 5k ). Probably the most I've driven a vehicle in any 14 month period. I'm hoping the stock duelers last until the fall, but I'm going to start shopping. Considering doing a level and 35's when the time comes. I'd like new wheels too, but the wife is not on board :LOL: . I don't mind the stock wheels though, so I'll probably still go ahead as planned.

Nice! I like the look/shape of those better than OE. Wonder if molded mud guards will fit.
Thanks!!! I don't think molded ones will fit as these flares wrap right under the bottom of the fenders. You hare to remove the black plastic trim pieces to install these. I bought Gator back mud flaps but have not installed them yet.

Some trim packages and certain years came with it. Seems the newer models don’t have it activated.

I think he Gatorback mud flaps are the only way to go. We have a 1 1/2 mile dirt drive to travel every time we leave the house. The Gatorbacks keep the sides of my truck cleaner than any mud flap I have ever owned.

That's cool it ended up well. Ask them if they don't have to report it, since it wasn't actual body work to a main body part, but to a simple bumper replacement. Otherwise it will show up in a car status report as an accident/damage which could negatively effect your trucks resale,
Good point. I will make sure. That would suck that I lose value for a scratch on the bumper.

Yup, I was looking at a few used cars recently as projects, and they will disclose a lot of even very minor things on vin reports companies that will show up as a damage or accident report. Looks scary on paper until you look into it further and it ends up being a tail light or something minor.

That however is considered a negative mark on the vehicle and could sway potential buyers in the future.

Last night I added a gray dash cover, a 4knines back seat cover and a Nordic White Raven decal on the back window. Need to get pics of the dash and back seat but here is the Raven decal. Have other goodies coming this week.

My Limited has been getting a bit of a break sitting in the garage since this bit of fun took over on arrival a couple of days ago.
This things HAULS a$$!

I thought they were kind of cool when they first came out, but that wore off quickly after seeing in person. And their performance was subpar from what was initially suggested. More of a cruiser without a lot of utility.
