installed gator srx soft roll-up tonneau cover. Relatively easy, not sure how to lock it in with the tailgate up, but it does the job for around $250.

also first wash since the ceramic coat a few weeks ago

I have my ceramic coating appointment next Monday.

How do you like the ceramic coating,? Are you completely satisfied with the results?

What’s on your seats, Rod?!

Ahh... yes that probably kills the beauty of that photo. Those are bed sheets until I find the right seat covers. It looks like there are no seat covers that allows air flow for our temperature controlled seats. :confused:

I paid 1k even for paint correction and coating with Adam’s graphene on all painted surfaces, front windshield, and wheels.

This was through a friend of a friend, so no warranty, but I’m really happy with it. I think it made the blue of the quartz really pop. It also makes it really easy to clean. Like I keep a microfiber in the truck and wipe down the hood/fenders/doors every evening.

I went outside to make a wire mesh rock guard for the intercooler on the front and took the opportunity to also add some sticker decals I ordered months ago.

Did you order the wire mesh guard or make it yourself?

And who did you get the rear insert from?

Oh my! I love it! Every car I’ve ever owned has been dropped. Usually just sport suspension. This truck, while amazing, drives me nuts with how high it is.
would love a full right up on parts if you could. Also what are the vossen specs

So today at work the first EV fire truck put into service in the US just happened to be in for some maintenance! I couldn't help but make sure I got a picture with my lightning. It does have a Diesel generator to extend range and water pump performance, the guys who demo the other units said they are getting 13-15 mpg vs the standard 3-4 but he's driving 400 miles a day to different departments. Departments that can charge in the shop may see a huge reduction in operating cost though, i believe LA said they were using 20 gallons of diesel a day before and now very rarely turn on the generator.

Lots of little things after taking delivery - tailgate decals, dust seal, bed tie downs, solid lug nuts, charge port inserts. Also got a stubby antenna on and removed the frunk beeper.
