Put the fugly stock wheels on yesterday for the truck to sit on during the winter. Today I went up to the fire dept to clean up the ultras

The truck is sitting next to our new 2011 F-250 Utility

I actually took some time and washed the grime off of it yesterday. I'm beginning to hate a black truck. :lol:

What's so bad about the stock 17's? :wtf: :jester: Don't be bashing the wheels I have yet to put on! :D


Finally took all the extra interior parts out of the bed of the ZR2. Only going to keep a few of them; the rest are garbage. Also making a half-ass attempt to rattle can the dent on the driver's side. Now I know why you're not suppose to paint below a certain temperature. Its 45 here now. :facepalm: Anyways, I'm just trying to get the bare spots covered up for this winter or else the salt will eat it as fast as I can drink a gallon of milk. It'll look OK, but won't be pretty. All I need it to do is last the winter. We'll see how it goes.

Replaced the driver's side headlight bulb too. I have to take it to work tonight so it might be a good idea to have both headlights working. Still planning on working on the HID's this weekend.

That's what a portable space heater is for! Point it at the spot you're painting for an hour or so before you start :thumbs:

Yeah, didn't think about that until AFTER I started. :facepalm: By that point, I didn't want to fry the paint.
