Went to the dump got rid of a bunch of scrap metal. Also went to the lumber yard and got some lumber to build a raised garden for the wife.

It's the same reason the company decals on the side window are covered over....anonymity. Pretty simple. And no... thousands of people don't see it daily... I don't live in never ending city lol.

Cleaned the calipers and started painting them with BBQ paint

Those look like the same calipers on my Z28. In fact I think they are.

In all seriousness, I don't have many tools in my toolbox. Odds are if something breaks on the road, I won't have that tool with me anyways. I just keep the basics. Small socket set, screwdrivers, crescent wrench or 2, random pliers, 4-way lug wrench and extra oil.

You forgot the duct tape

I quit my job yesterday, got the new Weather Tech floor liners and put them in today (front and rear for quad cap) Not too sure about the Weather Tech liners.. they look nice but they slide easily and won't stay in place. I guess I just can't win when it comes to decent floor mats. The Husky liners I've had in the past would warp and not stay flush. :nopity:

Why i got a new harness

 

You must have have had a non-functioning button or two, eh?

 

That wheel looks like the one I got from AutoWoods; mine's in Cherry.

It all worked. I repinned it when i messed it up the first time. Pulling it back out destroyed it. And mine is from Autowoods

Well Denali bezel is coming. My checking acct hates me. I need to delete all commerce apps from my phone. Still need the front air dam and rear shackles, as well as rotors to finish my brakes. Today is a nice break. I havent even opened the garage and dont even want to see my truck. It will be a relaxing day if i can stay out of the garage. I got my swamp cooler functional in the garage so the 108° was kind of tolerable in it.

Those things worked great out in Phoenix. MMI had them in their shop classes, and pretty much every garage in the valley had them too. Way cheaper than running A/C 24/7, that's for sure.

 

Was a novel concept for this East Coast guy - those don't work very well when the dew point is approaching 90° ...

Always wanted to ride dunes ever since I opened my first Dirtwheels magazine over 30 years ago. Still haven't done it! Closest I've got is local sand pits many years ago. Had some crazy steep hills, some with inverted cliffs at the top - used to love climbing those. Not sure if I could still do it now. Had no fear in those days - we used to have a functioning healthcare system, lol.

Drove the "Pig" 600 miles pulling the big trailer loaded down, got 9.2 Mpg at 60 MPH!!!! I was going to stop and weigh it but I missed one truck stop and said oh I know where there is one just up the road, still waiting to find the one just up the road!! :jester:

    • It wouldn’t have happened if the government hadn’t mandated outrageous fuel mileage standards. It does very little for the consumer. It adds cost. Back during Covid there was a chip shortage. They gave a rebate for your truck if it didn’t have the chip to turn on cylinder deactivation. It was 50$ because at best you may see 1/2 a mile increase per gallon. Splitting hairs each fuel mileage trick wasn’t mandated. The government doesn’t do the engineering work and say use this until it’s already in use and they like it. The fuel mileage was mandated. And those add ons the results. There’s a mandate and they are the results.
    • It was never mandated.  Ever.    Automakers were incentivized to install it by getting CAFE credits to help with their vehicle fleet fuel economy scores.  They were being handed money/CAFE credits to install it.  Which is NOT a mandate.       The current admin removed the incentives that were behind them installing it.       
    • Are you playing Slide Down endlessly but your score is still low? Are you constantly crashing into obstacles as the game speed increases? Don't worry, this article will share 5 invaluable tips to help you master the race and impress your friends. Golden Rules 1. Look one step further. The mistake of 90% of new players is only staring at their character. The secret of experts is to look towards the top of the screen (where the slide is about to appear). This gives your brain an extra 0.5 - 1 second to process the situation and determine the direction of movement before the obstacle approaches. 2. Use gentle movements; don't swipe too hard. Slide Down is very sensitive. Moving your finger too forcefully or with excessive amplitude will cause your character to be thrown off course or crash into a wall. Practise moving your finger with small, decisive, and precise movements. 3. Don't be greedy for gold in dangerous locations. Gold coins are tempting for buying skins, but life is more important. If you see a gold coin right on the edge of a cliff or next to a spike trap, ignore it. Our goal is a High Score, and your score only increases if you survive. 4. Make the most of Power-ups. During the slide, you'll encounter items like Magnets (attract gold) or Shields (temporary invincibility). Never miss them! Especially the Shield, it's your "get out of jail free card" to help you get through those deadly fast sections. 5. Stay calm when speed peaks. When your score exceeds 500 or 1000, the game speed will be very fast. At this point, don't try to think logically; let your natural reflexes work. Take deep breaths and don't panic. Apply these 5 tips to your next game, and your leaderboard will surely improve dramatically. Good luck climbing the Slide Down leaderboard!
    • If you use compressed air regularly, one problem you cannot ignore is moisture. Water in the air line can cause rust, unstable air pressure, poor tool performance, and even damage to sensitive equipment. That is why I highly recommend using a desiccant air dryer. A desiccant air dryer is designed to remove moisture from compressed air by using drying materials such as activated alumina or molecular sieve. Compared with basic water separators, it can achieve much lower dew points, making it especially useful for applications that require dry and stable air. For workshops, painting systems, pneumatic tools, CNC machines, laser cutting equipment, and industrial production lines, a desiccant air dryer can make a big difference. It helps protect equipment, improve air quality, reduce maintenance costs, and extend the service life of the whole compressed air system. Another advantage is reliability. Many desiccant air dryers are built for continuous operation and can maintain stable drying performance even in demanding environments. For users who care about long-term efficiency and equipment protection, this is a smart investment. When choosing a desiccant air dryer, I suggest paying attention to air flow capacity, working pressure, dew point performance, regeneration method, and maintenance requirements. A good model should match your compressor system and actual air consumption. Overall, if moisture is causing problems in your compressed air system, a desiccant air dryer is definitely worth considering. It is practical, efficient, and highly useful for anyone who needs clean, dry, and reliable compressed air.
    • My brand new 2007 Silverado's wax frame was rust from end to end partway through it's SECOND winter here in MA. That stuff is completely useless.
