What did you do with your 5th Gen this week?

[Edward Hands]

This……

Too Black.

You need some Delmonico Red to liven that black up.

Here is a couple picks

Wow. That is a lot of work. Good luck with this project, and update us when done.

 

[ProsperRam]

I bought it!

 

[ANGLICO]

Howdy. Have not been around for while. Work, work, work and well, you know.......

FINALLY properly grounded my CB and UHF/VHF antennas to the hood and frame since the powder coating on my Ditch Light brackets were not providing a solid ground plane. Made a huge difference. Now the whole body and chassis is one linked ground plane.

I been trying to get to this for a couple of months and knocked it out today.

Note to CB and UHF/VHF installations and ditch lights. Highly recommend braided mesh grounding.

To protect the hood edge paint and for looks, I used Plasti Dip spray paint to cover the flexible metallic mesh. It REALLY HID the mesh visually when zip tied to the existing coax and power for the light..

@ANGLICO, that Plasti-dip on the ground straps looks like it will work great!

Drove mine to an ABC store in NC and picked up this.

I put on new OEM black emblems/badges! Looks good without the chrome. Now I want the OEM black chrome exhaust tips lol. Damn you money.. Why don't I have more of you!

Had my front, back, and rear windows ceramic tinted. That Mega Cab can really hold in the heat.

 

[Tulecreeper]

Ran mine through an actual car wash last week. I haven't gone through a car wash in probably 30+ years. Course, in the desert it was all dust-covered again in a week.

 

[turkeybird56]

Put gas in it.

 

[skates15]

Spilled 20oz of hot coffee between the center console and driver seat.

I never consider anything truly "mine," until AFTER I've spilled coffee on it. It's rare that I don't have a cup of coffee in my hand.
