I have ended up with cars that are comfortable for half an hour, but get uncomfortable after that long. Test drives don't tend to find that. Also you get it coming on quicker because of still being sore from last time if you drive it daily. Stuff catches you out too, like one car will make...

I made the first load a mercy mission, local food bank was calling for this stuff..

What's he gonna do, play the "My name's on the front of the building I can call it what I damn well like." card ? :LOL:

Just realised I'm good now, that foam I tossed in the back added 30lb of floatation.

That's why I'm thinking about a CB and a cute little feisty duckie on the hood.

For lug wrenches I always liked the flip out chrysler ones and the long GM ones from the 80s (or earlier) ... the GM one have just the right amount of spring not to break your ankle when you jump on them from the roof. Alas they are 3/4, but if 13/16 fits, I might dig out a plug socket with a...

I was more meaning the first ones they were boasting as "all metric" not sure if it was the Escort. A huge number of replacement parts seem to end up with imperial sized hex heads, so even something Korean or Japanese, by the time it's been around a few years it's picked up 3/16 bleed nipples...

Urgh, they're gonna make me math. Meaning if it seems like 27Mhz harmonics from any of those higher bands would be in excess of 5W then there's no point NOT using position 2 for my CB antenna.

Smart, that two tone really makes the topper blend in. Any intel whether it's a fire chief car, command car, inspectors car, community outreach or what? I think our locals have some spill and containment units in smaller vehicles.

Hah, new truck, new personality, no way... I'm blue Da ba dee da ba di Da ba dee da ba di ...

Sheesh, at todays CAN/US exchange rate, my pre-tax on Lariat with liners, 4k, PLUS a tonneau was $35,201 USD with plan A discount.

Heh yeah, I jumped on the Canadian Employee pricing like a fat kid on cake, but I had to get one with the tonneau, which stretched the last dime. I was gonna wait a bit and get an Ali Express roller.

Did one of the most important jobs on a new vehicle, mascot installation. Though Papa Smurf ain't sitting very firm in the cubby, had to prop him up at one end, like he's inviting you to share his jacuzzi. Might need to give him a lead seatbelt or fill his breeches with birdshot.

Won't make any money in scrap hauling like that, stack 'em crossways, 3 on 3 with the gate down, and another one across the back seat on a pet protector :LOL:

Thanks. One other benefit, despite being a mid grey and only slightly silvery, it does a heck of a lot to alleviate the "black hole effect" of a bedlinered bed.

I keep soft footing mine to ghost along in electric or regen, then remind myself, "Hey dumbass, this is the running in tank, give it like 66.3296324% of the beans"

Deployed my huge investment... https://www.mavericktruckclub.com/forum/threads/20-dollar-bed-bedecking-marvel-at-the-opulence.71988/

Hi MTC, I guess $20 of lumber might have done quite a lot, but I picked these up... https://www.mavericktruckclub.com/forum/threads/amazon-light-weight-bed-mat-possibility.69710/post-1158512 and I had some shower curtain rods, bought ages ago for a project that fizzled, and spare pipe...

Every time I was looking at 2024s the dealers seemed to have a lot of chassis cabs they were knocking down 10s of thousands, even 2023s. So IDK if you'll see something more reasonable in another area if you check what dealers are trying to clear out. Seems odd that that shape kicks you into...

Hi twinsie with the twin pack :LOL: Got an Escape PHEV and just picked up the Maverick. Must admit the Mach E was under vague consideration at some points, especially when seeing them going for 20k not very used.
