Happy Monday everyone! So far it looks to be a decent week. We might actually have a stretch enough of good weather for me to put down grass seed this week.

this is what happens after 15 years and 192,000 miles of driving in CT, the roadsalt capital of the world. sry for the double post and this one being a long post
top pic is the drivers side floorboard. thats a droplight shining through under the truck. thats probably where some of the wind noise is coming from
second pic is of the passenger side rear cab corner. thats the rust thats scares me the most.
third pic is of the drivers side front quarter panel.
the last pic is of the passenger side rear wheelwell. when we bought the truck 5 years and 80k ago, both sides were rotted, this side being slightly worse. we got em repaired and the shop said the repair would last about 3 years. sure enough, it did. the other side isnt nearly as bad, its just bubbling with a couple spots showing. better to get it done now.
