Installed and did a temporary wiring job on some behind-the-grille driving lights. I just think they look bad-***.

Next project is to do the permanent wiring job.

fabbed up the angle iron for the lights behind the grille mod, got the splash shield cut out, all holes drilled in the bar, and painted. its drying over night. also got my old cb antenna and mount out so i can put my low pro qt on tomorrow. that involved pulling my bed liner out, and un running the coax.

Well I have not done anything with my truck in over a month. I am about 17 to 18,000 miles away from the states but the last thing I did in my truck was park it in the Deployed parking lot.

I have almost 58000 on her. i was having issues when i would pass people on the highway where it would feel like it would get bogged down. Changing the filter seems to have fix that. i had noticed my MPG going down a bit but that might have been winter blend gas. I was getting 16 mpg during the summer and 14 a few weeks ago. filled up last night and i was at 13 so hopefully it will go up on the next fill up.
