What did you do with your truck/shop today

[Jsdirt]

Pollen .... that's something we haven't seen up here in over 5 months!

 

Plenty of road salt, though.

Installed a toggle swith. I plan on installing at least two more. One will be for a light bar at some point, another for rear bumper lights for hooking/unhooking my trailer at night. Not sure yet what the others will be used for...

What is the black paint on the bottom of the dash trim from? I have the same thing on mine but it is right behind the steering wheel. Haven't tried to take it off yet for fear of making it worse!

[kstruckcountry]

It's not paint but the lack of. Pretty common on these, my 2006 had the spot behind the wheel when I got it.

I figured I wasn't the only one! I only notice when I get into the truck....it's perfectly hidden when I'm driving!

[Jsdirt]

Yeah, it seems GM painted over black plastic in alot of their interiors for several years. Any way to save a buck ...

Just ordered up a set of Hankook Ventus ST RH06 to replace my Blizzaks for snow tires. Excellent!

 

HAHAHAHA! Just kidding - these will be going on my summer 20's. I love when people buy these style tires, then rant in the reviews about how bad they are in the snow. You're KIDDING, Sherlock! LOL

 

 

Got them from Discount Tire Direct on eBay for $126 per tire SHIPPED. Couldn't believe it. Almost $200 cheaper than Tire Rack with shipping. They were one of the best rated tires on there - glad I threw the info in Google! Made me $200 richer. Should stick like glue in the summer - that's what I was after. Might have to use 4WD on the grass though, lol.

If they are anything like the Eagle F1, they will be fun tires

[Jsdirt]

From what I've read on the 'Rack, they're very similar, except live a little longer life. They don't make the F1 in 275/55-20, unfortunately.

 

Here's a link to the ones I got. They have killer ratings:

EDIT: Actually they may have the F1's in that size - it may have been filtered out of the options list, since I logged in with my truck's specs.

My F1's are in 275/45. I went back to stock and needed an equivalent to 255/70R16.

Yep, not the greatest interior, but at least the sheet metal doesn't dent if you look at it the wrong way.

Let's not get started on how many dents are in my truck lol

[crafferty]

Doesn't apply to anything I want anyways

Seems like a lot of companies have updated thier or created MAP policies for 2016. Now AutoAnything coupons never work.

I really like the layout of the 800 interior, actually.

Can't wait to slip back into another 800 as my weekend warrior truck. New truck may be quiet but I miss my 800 and the simplicity of working on it. Plus I'm not scared to break something cause it's cheaper to repair
