Hi All.
Owned my 2500 for a little over two weeks now and its a 1000x more useful to me than when I bought it.
What I've done in those two weeks:
Bought tonneau cover
Front windows tinted
AVS wind deflector things installed
Floorboards installed
Husky X-act liners installed
Spent the entire day yesterday doing some paint correction on the beast. Not a flat panel on this truck. Grr. There was a good number of scuffs on the passenger side from what looked like driving in to a tree line of some sort. There are some through scratches on the roof that I may take to get touched up as well.

Ran compound, polish, hybrid wax and a cerakote sealant. I will likey not use the cerakote again. It was too expensive for what it is, and will likely get the meguires ceramic spray stuff in the future. Overall, it looks fantastic. It's still a 65k mile truck with various imperfections but cest la vie.
Next week is rust proofing, I've got a underbody pressure washer attachment that I'll get it cleared out before the rust proofing appointment. It's a california truck with zero rust and I want to keep it that way. From there I need to service the diffs and the transfer case for the 65k service interval and we'll be good for awhile longer.
