I am not sure if anyone else has ever tried this but I did and it works alot better then windex or any other window cleaner that I have ever used, I used the goo gone on my side windows/mirrors/front window and I noticed that using that the windows and mirrors are extremely clear with no streaks or what have you, even when they get wet the water beads off as if its rain x, no oily residue or anything, I even use it on my Jet Ski mirrors now also and what a big difference compared to other window cleaners. I am just suggesting this as an alternate route for window cleaning, some dont mind the streaks but it bug the heck out of me so I dont use windex or other window cleaning products.

Good to know, Thanks for the tip. :D I'll give it a try one day.

That's an interesting use for Goo Gone but I'll give it a try. It's pretty good stuff.

Just be sure not to get it on anything else while you're doing this. This product does do a number on certain plastics. ABS is one of them.

I just one day after washing my truck and such put some of the goo gone on a paper towel and used it on the chrome on my truck and wow was it shiney, then I thought to myself how would it work on windows, so I did my side mirrors and after getting done with the side mirrors it was so clear that I jumped to my side windows and got the same results so after that I decided to do the front windshield and once again was wow'd by the results, I then after the windshield tried it on the interior windows and my windows were crystal clear with no streaking or residue. Just make sure that when you do it you use 1 paper towel(works best) as the applicator and a dry clean towel as a removal towel, best to do it in the shade but either way works, just rub it on and then after wipe it off with the dry towel, it will dissapear and be nice and clear. I will attempt to get some before and after pictures and a step by step process up once it stops raining and storming here.

 

 

How did you come up with this idea? I might have to give it a try also.

    • 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!
