Man... cleaning these trucks is a lot of work!

But it sure looks nice when it's done. Time for a beer and a frikkin nap.
Washed it, waxed with NXT, and treated all the rubber and plastic with NXT protectant. Waxing the roof was much easier than I thought it would be but still.. Anyway, here she is looking nice and clean for the moment.

You should have that oil leak checked, while it's still under warranty.

Looks like you even hit your wheel wells? Nice touch -- and, in my obsessive compulsive mind, a very important detail to any good detail.

BAH! I knew someone would catch that! That's all I have to remember my old 93 Explorer beater. Couldn't keep the fluids in that damn thing.

Oh yea. If I see dirt I have to clean it. On any car I care about the ritual involves any part of the car that I can reach including the engine bay. I HATE a dirty engine bay.

They're pretty good for a factory wheel. At least good enough to prevent me from going aftermarket which my wife appreciates. Pretty soon here I plan on getting some weekend offroad 18" wheels/tires but don't tell her.
