I'll bite. What is that device?

Installed the amp and sub, today. Re-ran the rcas on the passenger side of the truck since I have the power on the driver side. Tried to tune the sub amp and its nice right now. Plan on having the audio shop tune it all this weekend

It's the Amazon Echo Auto they've had as "Invite Only" for the past 2 years almost...got mine Friday, and so far I'm not impressed

Finally kept the promise of fixing the light granite dust scratches and soft dent in the roof. Had a casualty when I felt the door sill scuff cover go "POP" 3 times from standing in the door sill while using the Rupes polisher.

NOTE: NEVER STAND ON THE DOOR SILL SCUFF PLASTIC FOR LONG PERIODS. IT'LL FRACTURE THE MOUNTS.

I tried plastic welding it since it's polypropelyne and then added apoxie around the mounts to reinforce it but it was toast. Ordered up a replacement piece, waited a day, popped it in and good to go again.

Replaced bushings on my Thuren track bar. And installed new but and bolt from dealer. Ordered bolt Monday from dealer. $40 for but and bolt. They forgot to order it. Went back. They dropped price to $25 lol. And Thuren shipped me new bushing and sleeve for free. They’re hands down the best, fastest and easiest to deal with. Back on the road now. Gotta find a trail haha

Started wiring up the harness for my aftermarket head unit install last night. Great way to be productive during Thursday night football. :)

Similar experience these dealerships are pricey. I needed 4 lower control arm bolts and they quoted me 35 bucks each.

What a PITA! Changed fuel filterS. The one on the rear of course was just out of reach for me to grab it comfortably. The connector for the water sensor was a pain to get off.

The one up front was the REAL fun one. Would have been fine expect that the o-ring tore as I tightened the filter and had about 1/4 gal of fuel spray out before I saw it on the leak check (started at the rear). I freaked out, is it gonna catch fire and would I have to jump in and have a flaming snowball screaming out of the garage as I backed out the truck being in flames. I would not be able drive it to the dealer to look at it (luckily I figured out the problem).

$125 in parts instead of the $216 dealer cost. If next time it goes like this, I will just be saving up to have them change them.

Pull the truck in last night from the trip to Estes and it was 15k miles exactly.

Also found a good way to "park" the funnels when I am finished using them. As long as I keep
the petroleum "drips" together should not have any chemical reactions.

Got my new console lid in today. First time I ever seen one in person. Got to say it looks sweet and it already has the correct hub for my new UAQ Radio! Stitching is dead on my new Sport dash! Cant wait to install it this weekend. :)
