True. But with Lincoln's head sideways, the distance to his nose is quite a bit more than the distance to the top of his head when he's upside down. Distance to the nose looks like it is at least twice the distance to the top of his head. So not even close to his nose... Means I got plenty of tread for at least the next year.

I was gonna say he’s got tread up to his nose!

I managed to fit an entire couch and loveseat into The Beast minus the steel frame. These were recliners so it was easy to break them down into pieces. Taking them to the recyclers tomorrow.

While mine is getting the body work done I ordered some little things for it. The rear cargo door didn't have the pull down strap and the center console didn't have the black rubber mat so I went ahead and found OE replacement ones from Ebay and ordered those. I'm doing my best to keep this vehicle as long as I can. Also I'm going to have the interior fully detailed and then install the weather tech floor liners and cargo liner to protect the carpet.

If missing the console insert, might have wanted to consider that wireless charging mat that people have ordered. They seem to be really nice. The look like OE, but fast charge your phones wirelessly. Plug and play into console. No wire splicing.

While that would be a good purchase I use my phone connected to my receiver for music streaming. I have the Stinger Heigh10 receiver so it can charge 2 phones at once and use the primary connection for android auto.

Got a call from the body shop. There was a bit more rust underneath than they anticipated (typical for central Illinois), but they are going to make new patch panels and they even were nice enough to not charge another cent. A few extra days in the shop and it'll be good as new. That is the kind of service that creates repeat customers.

Got the 2013 wheels/tires from FB Marketplace yesterday.
Michelin Defender M+S 265/70 R17 ride very nice!

Plasti-Dipped my grille and removed the bull bar from the front yesterday.
Much cleaner, I think! The grille was painted a dark gray metallic. I coated with black Plasti-Dip.

Update... I changed my mind and swapped for a stock grille and lights.
