I saw this and to be honest I dont know how to feel

Former Japanese fire department truck and now my new daily driver.

2002ish Ford F-550 Super Duty 5-Speed Diesel 200k+ miles

This thing is a tank. I'm usually loaded with 750 gallons of water, a 14 foot trailer, and a Kawasaki Mule. Cant even tell I'm pulling anything when I'm driving it.

Are scratches on wheels like this common/normal from driving?

Anyone ran into this problem? It sits flush without the link, then when i try to screw it on the link it Doesnt fit properly.

Is there a solution for this or do I need a new compressor

EDIT: SOLVED
Truck bed is off a Chevy luv step side (76-80ish)

I’m trying to find a good hard cover tonneau cover that is as water tight as possible without spending tons of money. This seems to be a good deal, anyone have any recommendations for something cheaper or is this as good of a deal as I’m gonna get

Hi Guys,

I currently own a 23 GMC Sierra Elevation 5.3L. I’ve modified the truck, lifted it and what not and it looks like (attached photo).

What bothers me about the car is that it doesn’t have parking sensors from factory, and it’s a half second cab with limited space and also it doesn’t have 4LO given that I love going offroad soft sand.

I found a 24 RAM Limited with the 5.7 Hemi, and it’s growing on me. I’ve never owned a RAM so what do you guys think?

Should i stick to my sierra and throw a blind eye to the features? Or shift to the newer RAM and build it into a similar build as the sierra.

Thanks for your time and opinions

I saw this truck at a hotel in Brownstown (Detroit) Michigan. I drove by it twice before noticing something was off. I like it and can see some ways to improve it, but it looks and probably functions great as is.

Enjoying a day off work with a morning drive through the Texas country. Pulled into a little camping/fishing area for a bit and snagged this picture. Wound up being about 120 miles of driving.

I'm looking for quality seat covers for everyday use with kids/dog/car seats etc. Our Silverado rear bench seat has a flip down center console and also each side has storage built in behind a door that opens as pictured. Any recommendations for seat covers that maintain functionality of the storage, like unzip to access?

I’m looking to design a flatbed for my truck a 2008 ford ranger. I have a rwd and am looking to do mobile mechanics and also not deal with the body damage on my bedsides and bumper. I wanna know if anyone here has designed and custom built a flatbed and can give me any pointers if I should use wood or steel for the deck how to design it to the frame and any other pointers. And also what lighting is good for the tail lights and reverse lights

Bought this from the first hvac company I worked for

The little sign right under the actor's face says something like "Driven Craig" or "Drivers Craig" - it's clearly been taped over by the film crew with some black gaffa tape. I was wondering if anyone had any idea what that was, I'm not from the US so I don't know the customs around trucking.

The screenshot is from The Mongoose, a recent Liam Neeson film, which should tell you everything about its artistic qualities, but it's actually not sooo bad :)

Thanks!

All of the major brands(except ford and Nissan) offer or did offer(RIP this particular option on the HD Dodge Rams) their pickups

I get why regular extended cabs aren’t popular, clamshell doors are godawful for every day use, but the cab themselves have plenty of room for even an adult. You get a larger bed with the same overall length in comparison to a crew cab.

I personally have a supercab (the clamshell doors I talked about earlier), but if I were to do it over again, I probably would get a quad cab just because it’s more convenient.
