Listen...all of these suggestions are great but what you truck needs is a vacation in Paradise!

Send it over here and I promise to keep the tires smokin', the oil changed and the fuel tank topped off every day (just remember to forward your gas card # to me).

I'll also have my kids wash & wax it for you. They may even give you a custom "juice colored" interior upgrade FREE!

I promise to take it to the beach regularly, too.

Let me know...

======

Seriously, stay safe.

Thanks for your service for starters! Greatly appreciated!!!

The one problem I see with this wife deal is, she will have the BSEG and won't let you have the rig back when you return! LOL

Be safe.

Thanks for your service, good luck, and be safe and careful. You want to come back and drive that truck, after all.


All good recomendations, especally testing every electronic feature, but you'll want someone to drive it a lot. Have them go on the highway up 1 exit and back. Have them drive it in different ways (i.e. floor it getting onto the highway, then slow down and floor it to pass a few people- I don't think you'll need to tell them that twice )

Good luck and be careful!
