Added two 12v outlets in the back to keep my jump starter and vacuum charged up. Got the Dyson V7 Car + Boat for $170 at Costco today.

Added Rigid Industries LED lights to the step bumper. Extremely bright.

Did you tie into your reverse lights or put em on a toggle?

I tied them into the reverse lights for the trailer harness so they turn on with the rest of the reverse lights. I have a light bar under the tailgate which plugs into the trailer brake harness and spliced these into the 5-pin connector. I used a CURT 56584 wiring harness so this all connects under the bumper behind the trailer brake plug so the plug on the bumper isn't being occupied and it looks cleaner.

Haha, Because my 20 month old destroys the cab with food and I got tired of having to roll out the vacuum every day to clean up the crumbs.

How difficult to add a 12v to the truck?

Shouldn’t be bad, plan to do this next. Using RedARC and will be running their system to run a second battery then 12v power in rear cab and another in the box canopy. Check them out, great stuff!

Not much of a mod but I just really didn’t like the matching cup holder to the interior trim. It was just to much for me I guess so I swapped it with the black one. Not an exciting mod lol

I removed the rear cover of the center console. There are 4 torx screws to remove, then just pull up towards the ceiling with 10 degree angle towards the back to release the friction clips. I then used a snake to run the wire under the carpet. It helped to remove the door sill trim and then I stuck my arm under the carpet to lift it up a little so the snake wouldn't get snagged on the carpet pad. It took about 30 minutes.

Took it in for an oil change and left with heavier pockets and a truck half the size.

 

Bye bye High Country, hello RCSB SLE.

I may have a biased opinion because I own a RCSB but you couldn't have made a better purchase lol

    • The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.
    • So I purchased the Range unit for my 2026 and I am seeing different locations suggested for the ECM . Can anyone confirm wither under hood, left side or right side or behind the wheelwell?
    • Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that. 
    • "Life is getting back to normal."    I'm driving again and all new joints are operating as expected for this stage of recovery.   My most recent joint replacement still requires a lot of attention but experience has taught me that time will quiet the remaining pain.  I joked with my surgeon that another joint replacement would take my mind off my most recent surgery and he responded by saying the next will be a hip!  There are no plans for another surgery but, unlike me, I don't think he was joking!  I certainly wouldn't refuse further replacement  if required but hope to spend time out of the "post-op"  period.  I can't stress enough that if you have been recommended for total hip, knee or shoulder replacement that you welcome the offer.  Post-op "recovery" may sound daunting and painful, however, this is far better than the insidious erosion of mobility you are currently experiencing.  Imagine what it would feel like to wake up most mornings feeling better and more mobile than you did the previous day!  Prior to my first surgery in June 2025, even getting out of bed was becoming a formidable task.  Since the day after my first surgery, I get out of bed everyday easily and unassisted.  Making the switch to feeling a little better each day rather than a little worse, is hugely motivating!
