What did you do to your truck today?

[RedRider]

how many days added to the stay for what?

It's in a body shop getting some repair work done and repainted.
He said they're not going to paint it all at once. Wants to paint it in 4 sections.
Might not get it back until Monday/Tuesday.

Did they say why?

I know a lot of painters that like to paint it all at once to be sure they get the closest color match.

I realize that is not necessary, but I was just wondering the reasoning behind wanting to paint it in 4 sections

He did, but I don't remember now. I was still taking in that it wouldn't be done so I wasn't paying good enough attention. I'll have to ask when we pick it up.

Unfortunately there are no ditches down here in the concrete jungle of Houston. At least not on this trip.

Like the lights did you add the mounting bar or did you use the OEM roof rack? I ask cuz I was thinking of adding lights there too

 

[drperry]

I drilled into the roof rack...

It' works pretty good... I don't get blinded by the lights shining on the hood

Yep!

The negative is actually grounded to the drivers door latch

I've got an 85 amp continuous duty solenoid instead of a relay... There's 610 watts of light on one switch
