Hello WIH gang!

Sorry about the light Darren. That sucks but hopefully you'll get it fixed up quick.

I hope you all had a great day. I've been stuck in class all day.....'twas a great class but cell signal stunk so despite random attempts, I couldn't get online to check in.

Yeah...if you were working on that outside then you have a free pass on dropping that light.
In those low temps, my hands would be unresponsive!

Good morning WIH gang! Glad to hear you obtained a license. I know we showed up at 4:59pm the Friday before we got married to get ours. My boss kept giving me stuff to do and making me later. I finally told him I was going whether he liked it or not. My bride was not happy with me...I told her to get used to disappointment

Thanks
Yup that answered my question. They look like plugs from farther away. I don't have that feature so I was wondering for a bit what they could be.

I was also going to say, I noticed you kept your old galvanized steel license plate instead of the super flimsy aluminum ones they hand out these days (at a higher cost to the end user!). Someday you might be able to use it as a trophy of your years of driving experience especially later on when almost everyone else has switched to the 7-digit plates.

Darren...I think Paul's right. You didn't have butter fingers, just frozen fingers. How is the wife liking the new bumpers?

Hey y'all. I've been trying to stop by but just don't have the time right now. Glad to see everyone doing well.

Darren, I really wish I could afford bumpers like that. Man, those are nice. One of my pet peeves is when a guy buys a new front bumper like yours but leaves the rear stock. Never been able to understand that.

"It" happened to my truck last night as I was driving home from Orlando. My truck now has 150,300 miles on her. (Most of the truck anyway, lol)

Paul, kper, savage, thanks guys. It was cold, the zip ties were breaking before I could get them tight which is usually a pretty good indication. Biggest issues was trying to do a 2 hour job in 1/2 an hour.......

I don't think the wife gives a rip about the bumpers either way.... she knows about them..... she used it as an excuse to have a Holt Renfrew day......... we are even........ I guess LOL. It's all good.

Not sure what she will say when she sees this tho...
Happy Easter kids, you better learn to share or it's going back on kijiji Tuesday

Thank Joel and congrats on 150,000!.

LOL on the rear bumper, we think the same on that one. I wanted to hold off on the rear as not to get killed by wifey but I could only make it a week or so. I think you need them both or it just looks like you bolted something on the front of the truck.

I also love the winch bumper with no winch, there are hundreds driving around like that here. Why OH why... princess auto has winches for like $200.00
