Colorado, nice work. Been bending tubing for over a decade, but tubing just doesn't look right on the newer trucks. How many cases of beer did it take for template material?

Just had a Retrax Pro bed cover installed as well as a 52 gallon auxiliary fuel tank/toolbox combo. Getting ready for our trip to Rocky Mountain National Park and Yellowstone later this year.

Replaced the smog pump.After 8 years the rear bearing gave up.Dw and I were on our way back from my brothers place in Texas ( round trip about 3600 mile) the bearing started to scream about a mile from home. I think lady luck was on my side this trip!

I got the bumper back from Powdercoating already! I integrated the trailer plugs into the bumper during fabrication.

Had to replace the OEM batteries on my ‘16. Went with the NAPA legend AGM’s.

I put it in my review view mirror.

I found almost exactly what I was looking for: a 2021 F150 3.5L XLT with the 302A accessory package (creature comforts) with the Tow Tech, 36 gallon tank, long bed, generator (work truck stuff) that the dealer was actually willing to discount. Not a lot because, well why they're selling everything in sight.

The generator was the only option I wouldn't have specced because I own a barely used in three years 2,000 watt but having it built in remove the slight stress of having one stolen.

My DW objects slightly to the very utilitarian look of a long bed oxford white truck. I may find a vinyl trim kit for the rocker panels to maybe break up the side.

Could be worse. You can’t even get 25 gallons for $100 here in Cali. BTW, I saw it was down to 26* at Ruby’s in Bryce last night.

What pissed me off was that the pump shut down at $100! I filled up the aux tank and thought that I'd be able to top off the main tank...nope! I only have 3/4 of a tank on the main, so I'll be topping that off before I pick up the RV from storage.

I’ve had the same problem. Have to shut down and re-enter the credit card again. One trip we had a super slow pump. It took about 20 minutes to pump 25 gallons!
