Ahahah !!! It’s what you get used to I guess.
The cost of living here can be quite high. It sucks sometimes. We will be at $2 a litre before long. Fuel prices are just nuts.

I’m currently working on sanding and painting my Westin HDX step bars. I found some rust forming in several areas on both the driver & passenger side bars. It looks like the result of stones and or road salt damage. (Yay for the northeast) I suspect a couple other spots I found to be Westin’s fault but I don’t feel like going through that hassle with them.
I also found some rust forming around one of the welds on the passenger side. Note to anyone who has these on their truck, keep an eye on them. I installed OEM mud flaps last year to help shield the step bars from road debris but I think some damage had already been done by that time.
I’m using the Rust-Oleum spray-on truck bed coating. I’ll post some before & after photos when it’s all done. I’ll be doing the bull bar also as a mystery ding appeared on the front of it and whatever hit it cracked the paint. Prime rust season is coming in PA so I figured I’d better take care of it before it gets a lot worse.

Some before & after photos if anyone is interested. Not a real big difference in appearance. The paint that was on them was lightly textured. I sprayed generous 5 coats on them and will most likely add more before road salt season hits.
There was a bad spot on the forward, down-facing area of the driver’s side rear passenger step that looked like it was shot with 00 buck. I didn’t get a photo of that, it took forever to sand.

Went thru some mud the other day. It needs a bath nowView attachment 142960
Mine has looked like that for the last month. Too damn wet in Kansas to clean it. Lol

Truck is filthy, haven’t washed it in 6 weeks due to a constant rain almost daily. I did clean and detail the interior and finally washed off under the hood.

Nice.
Mine seems to have the satellite antenna but does not appear to be enabled.
I wonder if it can be activated ??

Tune the Sirius XM to channel 0, and it will give you the ID number. Then you can call them to activate it. Mine is about $19 a month
Do you have a process and list of chemicals you used to do this? Looks great!
I've always been nervous to wash the engine bay because of all the electrical components
Nah man. We don’t even get the XM option on the screen. But the Antenna is on the roof. [emoji35]
It may actually not work down here at all.
