Looks amazing! Is that really a gasser? A 2500 Dodge without a Cummins is like going to a steakhouse and only ordering a salad. hahaha

I agree. Collinite is amazing for the winter! I use that on my sled trailer and it holds up great, even after being drug through the salt all winter long. I wash it after every trip and then reapply 476 before I put it back in the barn in the spring. The trailer is seven years old now and...

Congrats! That’s a sweet ride. I love that color!

:laughing: That must be why it seems like my UPS driver always tries to hit 60 before he gets to the end of my driveway. :laughing:

Something where I work less and get paid more. :D

I agree 100%. Black is a lot of work, but the reward is much greater than with any other color. It has to be black black though and not the washed out metallic blacks like most vehicles are today. To the OP, The thing that’s helped me the most is learning to accept the fact that it isn’t...

I would go with 5K and I would suggest going with more fixtures with lower lumen output vs less fixtures with higher output since your garage is probably a fairly low ceiling. The high output high bay lights are way too bright for low ceilings and don’t provide the correct lighting pattern when...

That’s about the same as I was quoted when I looked into right after I built my workshop. One was a touch over $10k and one was just over $11k, which is about twice as much as the actual concrete cost. Haha

Looks great! I would love to do something similar in my shop but I’m thinking the size would make it pretty cost prohibitive to hire it done. Did it come with any kind of warranty since you had it installed?

A family friend who was a painter and owned his own body shop often used the term “furback” (the further back you are the better it looks) when referring to bad/poor repairs and paint jobs. I sometimes find myself saying this when I see swirled or scratched up vehicles. Another “saying” I...

That is the only Mopar I would ever consider owning. Love the styling of these and that color is awesome! Great job. Looks amazing.

Results are amazing. I’ve always liked the looks of the Volvo wagons. The owner is a car salesman’s worst nightmare like me. Keeps their cars forever. I don’t drive anywhere close to that kind of mileage though.

Yeah, I was going to say I don’t think it’s limited to the NE US. I think Michigan has some of the worst roads in the nation and as others have pointed out “fix the damn roads” isn’t happening. I live in extreme SW Michigan and drive to the UP (upper peninsula for non-michiganders) a few...

I agree. I’ve been approached many times in the parking lot at work (back when I actually went to the office) asking where I had my truck detailed. When I told them I did it myself the next question was usually how much to do their vehicle. I tell all of them that I only do my own vehicles...

That’s an excellent suggestion. A lot of people “upgrade” their washer/dryer after purchasing a home and there’s nothing wrong with the ones they took out. It’s only later on that they find out they messed up and should’ve kept the old machines. Unless of course you need one you can control...
