Ohhh boy I'd have lost it too. But ya I need to get to a detailer too I can clean my truck just fine but I have a couple scuffs on my headliner and I'm worried if I even attempt to clean it myself it's gonna make a bigger scuff. Headliners are tricky. But you should post pics when done I'm sure it will look amazing.

I was backed in on the furthest spot away from the door and there were at least 2 dozen more spots that were empty and some guy parks close as hell next to me and then I feel my cab shake and I see the door in my mirror and the driver walking around with a wheel chair. So my cards were yell at the guy needing the wheel chair who has bigger problems than paint scuffs or yell at the driver for parking next to me knowing he needed space for the passenger and his wheelchair.
I went full throttle on option B mostly

Parking is a tough one. You park too far away from other cars people think your an ass hat and intentionally screw with you. But ya that's a tough one I'd have went ape shit on B as well.

Traded the lly off towards an lml. The lly needed HGs, rust repair and a built trans, so figured it was time to move up. The lml is getting up there in miles at 195k but should have tons of life left.

Installed an engine driven air compressor to replace the electric compressor I'd been running. At idle, this thing flows 2-3x what the electric one did, and just goes up if you rev up. Now I gotta look at enabling the PTO/high idle function.

I wanted a way to measure the oil level without removing the compressor from the truck (like the kit said to do, lol!). So my dad and I machined out a dipstick to replace the fill plug. The knurled section is the 8-12oz min-max range. Was a nice father's day weekend father/son project. He likes playing with the lathe!

Yes it does. I love the gm colors. Mines that deep ass blue. And I wish I had bought a 4 door too lol. I have a daughter and it works with her in the back but man 4 door would have been a little better. One of the only things I like about super duties they are huge inside. My father in laws 09 four door 6.4 is dang near the size of a mega cab.

At times it seems like they are basically a single cab with extra storage space!

I almost traded for a 14' Denali CCSB same color when they were trying to get rid of them and every now and again I wish I had pulled the trigger!

I personally think GM has the best color pallet. My paint rep showed me their sample book for GM and it had everything from the Blaze Orange that I have on my 72' clear to Sonoma Jewel on my 08' but all the colors in between were irritating because you have only ever seen 20% on a production vehicle!

I got quoted for a mega cab Silverado from my EC and it was 20K. I've seen their work in ads and stuff and their trucks are cool that they push out the doors but that's a lot of scratch!
