Ordered my new wheels.
Here's a photoshop.

Can't wait to get them and my new tires!

What I did all day was level out my truck, drink beer, chase a mouse, and rescue my dad since his rental broke down. And I had to do his deliveries for him haha.

what was wrong with the rental besides the obvious that its a rental.

It was overheating and the oil pressure dropped way low. No idea what the problem is. Eventually drove it home, will see how it is in the morning. Hopefully it's drivable. Worst part about these new trucks is there's so many electrical crap and emissions s**t the average joe can't really look at it and diagnose an issue. Also being a rental not like we could do anything anyways.

Oh and it's a 5 ton truck haha.

do people really use that nasty foam brush at the car wash?

 

[anfrey]

I used to until I started to actually care about my paint. This was many years ago when I first got my car though.

I never even been to a car wash. Never trusted them. I don't even trust people washing my car by hand.

John is the girl with the dragon tattoo...

I have three. I have plenty of ideas of what I want but my mind keeps changing so I figure I'll wait until I'm certain as to what I want. I love the ones I have though. I have praying hands on my right shoulder (favorite), "family" on my chest, and "Mi Vida Loca" on my back. Translates to "my crazy life".

I like the Mi Vida Loca one. That's awesome!

Nope. I always bring my own mit and use the soap that comes out of it.

I wash all my vehicles at home by hand...

fùcking 8000 posts. I need a life...

Yeah I wash mine by hand too. Makes you appreciate the effort and you pay more attention to detail as well. I'll occasionally go to the car wash, mainly when I wash my car at night. But even then it's a self wash, not an automated wash. And I bring my own soap, just use their water

It's also a good place to wax your car if you don't have a garage or canopy to avoid sunlight
