Got the leveling kit on. Doesn't even look half bad with the stock tires.

Looking good! I really need to get my front 5100s installed to get the front up a little.

Hey everyone,
I thought this would be a good spot to promote a 13'-14' related Thread

I have tried two pairs of those (Weathertech and AVS) but couldn't get them to play nice with the auto widow feature.

You have any issues? If so have you over come it and how?

Weird, I installed my AVS almost 17 months ago now & NO issues ever

Its taken 2 years; but I almost never have a problem with my weathertech rain guards making the window go back down. Slowly they've worn into place. Its worse in hot temperatures (maybe because i like to have the windows open a lot more). i rarely have it happen in the winter. If it does go back down, if you go up and hold the button again within 3 seconds, it will disable the auto down safety feature. But, you have to put the window back up and hold the button within 3 seconds of it stopping or it may trigger again. Eventually it gets better.

Otherwise, I love the rain guards.

No, I have not had any issues but I only have the auto down feature on the driver's door. Erie before me commented on how to fix it and I saw a YouTube video saying the same thing.

I love the look of the inner channel look but with two young grand kids who are always with me in the truck I get to anxious to by-pass the safety return feature. I have only tried them in the summer, maybe I will try again in cold weather and see if I can't get them to seat before winter.

On my '04 I had the stick on and they lasted me 10 years so I may just do that if this try fails.

Thanks for the replys

FYI, it will not permanently disable the feature; It will only disable the safety feature that single time you put the window up; and only if you retry within 3 seconds and hold the button. But even that can be risky with children; they're great with technology and how to manipulate it.

I've got a pair of Vent Visors on mine (Not sure what brand, they were on there when I bought the truck) but I've had no issues at all with the automatic windows on either side.
Anyway, I detailed the truck this past weekend. I wanted to get it done before the harsh weather hits, so I'm going to try and get my wife's car done this weekend. Not to blow my own horn too much but dang does this truck look good!

Truck's lookin' good Neil! I like Vent Visors, I've had them now on several of my trucks. I like that I can crack the windows open a bit on a hot day and still keep the cab dry in case a storm pops up. They also keep the cab more secure as no one can tell that you're windows are open that extra couple inches.
As for the Peragon bed cover, I know quite a few guys on here that love those things. I had a tri-fold soft cover on mine before I put the cap on it and that was fine with me. Cost a lot less too!

Thanks Jim. So far I am really liking the cover along with the vent visors. I did also add a set of rear wheel well liners a few weeks ago, so the truck is getting there.

BTW, your truck looks great after cleaning it up. I need to clean mine up tomorrow and hopefully will get a coat of wax on it too.

Just put some new tires on my 2013.
I stayed with the stock tire size, but vary happy to get the worn stock tires off of there.
