    Tach is registering engine idle speed. That's why I made the comment. Maybe some people don't know this? Thought is was common knowledge but never know.

    I figured out when the light comes on, there's still 4 gallons in the tank.

    I took the picture after adding gas. I had just started the vehicle. The gas gauge registered the amount of gas, but the range hadn't reset yet. I never full up while the engine is running.

    Edit: I only put $20 worth of gas until i got to a better/cheaper gas station.

    Feel free to ask
    I wasn’t feeling the hook that came on the Smittybilt x20, so I put my angle grinder to use and replaced the hook with a flatlink.

    No more hook dangling around. No more bow shackle hanging off the front asking to be stolen. More protection for the synthetic rope from UV and other elements. Also adds a little color up front.

    I installed 1" front spacers to level the truck a bit, and I scored a box that will go on the roof rack [when I get the cross bars from LFD] I think I will install the Tred boards on the lid of it so I can take it on/off as 1 unit as I transition from DD to camping/travel.

    The box is a Pelican copy from Harbor Freight they are on sale right now for 119
    I was there to get parts cleaning solution because I'm servicing my Warn M8000 winch in preparation to purchase and install a bumper .
    I'll likely get a C4 with hoop

    I do it all the time, just like $5 or $10 at a time. Doesn't seem to care.

    100% agree, and it kinda scares me when I see it done in other countries that offer full service. Customer pulls up, engine running, and stays in the car.

    Dobinsons 2.5" lift. Cooper AT3 XLT 295/70R17.
    I try not to let it get below 1/4 tank. I only let it get this low for the recall. A little lower than I planned for though. I tried to put a little trust in Google maps to give me a direct route, but I got a tour of the city instead.

    I dropped it off with the dealer with 5 miles left. I picked it up with 1. I was starting to worry on my way to the gas station.

    More mini improvements. Swapped out all interior and exterior white lights for LEDs (side-by-side shown, huge improvement), finished my plasti-dip experiments on the back garnish, and leather wrapped a peeling steering wheel.

    Just be careful if you drill the Top of that box to mount the traction pads because your box will no longer be waterproof.

    Got to bring my beast back home today! Eibach pro-truck shocks at all four corners with Wheeler's T1 coils in the front, Dirt King UCA's, and Eibach coils in the rear. I didn't mind the stock suspension at all, but, I am absolutely amazed at how much smoother the ride is now!
