Where was this? Who winched you out?Got so stuck. Had to be winched out.
Gonna take a long time to get her clean tomorrow.
Opposite of the poster mudding above; a smooth day at the beach.:thumb3:
I have since gotten the windows tinted, went very dark everywhere, 20% on the side window. Looks better and keeps the heat out a lot, along with the night time headlight glare from other cars that are behind me.

As I was leaving to run some errands, UPS guy showed up with my new Magnaflow Exhaust!
Then, errands turned into going down to the dealer and getting it installed. Threw in a TRD Oil Cap for the hell of it!

Does it exit straight out the back like the stock system or out the side behind the tire?

The one I originally thought I ordered was supposed to be behind the tire, but I got the one that comes straight out the back.
I'm happy with it, sounds really good. Gonna spray paint the tail section black though.

I had a new set of BFG AT KO's slapped on this past Friday (replacing the current set that were already getting close to bald).
I ordered the C1 load range (LT265/70/R17/C1), and that's what was on the invoice. When I left, I didn’t bother checking the model on the tire itself.
I thought my truck felt a little sluggish and handled a little different on the freeway (seemed to wander a little), but thought nothing of it. On the way to work today, I again thought it felt sluggish and the steering response felt different from the old set of KO’s I just replaced. So I checked the tires, and they slapped the heavier “E1” load range tires on there! (like 8.5lbs per tire, or an extra 34lbs of un-sprung weight I didn’t plan on)
Needless to say, Discount Tire will be making it right on Thursday for no charge. I got a free ~500 miles of tire wear out of the deal so I’m not complaining
With the new tire purchase, I also had my alignment checked as a precaution. It hadn't budged from the alignment I got ~22 months ago when I initially installed the 5100’s @ 0.85”. The alignment tech was very impressed with how well the truck kept its alignment (granted, I’m not very hard on the suspension). No charge!!!
Next up: T4R Windshield #3 in November followed by my 1st non-dealer state inspection (truck is 2 years old in November )…

Just south of Portland and a friend with a jeep swung by and pulled me in from the road. I didn't realize that the lone hill was fill dirt for the upcoming development. It was so deep.
