Just had 3m crystalline 70% installed on my windshield
My return air isn’t working so I figured this would be the easiest way to help cool the cabin while driving

I’ve already noticed a difference
I’m in central texas

Interesting….. I’d be interested as long as the shade is not much different than non-tinted.

finally got a day off on a sat with out it raining out or being 100 degrees, so over a month ago i bought a full set of power stop Z17 pads and rotors. got them swapped out today.

old rotors were 7-8 years old, have been pad slapped 3 times, had a slight warp i could feel, and they were just not stopping as good as they had in the past. so far power stops feel pretty solid.

side note. last year i bought this brake compression tool. omg, used it for the first time and that things a game changer.

I use a sunshade that’s designed for keeping off snow. Laid on the outside, keeping the glass cool. ( Works good to lower interior heat by 20 degrees in this Florida sunshine.
But I like this tint !!

Yesterday I drained and refilled my power steering fluid reservoir, and today I went to take my truck to lunch and found coolant on my garage floor. Looks like my original radiator finally developed a leak after 21 years and 299,000 miles. Can't say I didn't get my money's worth.

More frustratingly, I've been battling some inconsistent A/C compressor cycling the last 2-3 weeks. It started after my battery died and was replaced. Low and high side pressures are within range, relay is good, blend door actuator has been replaced, the low pressure cutoff switch has been replaced, but for some reason the A/C compressor will short cycle, not cycle at all, or cycle normally. It's been pretty frustrating. I'm at the point where I'm about to just take it to a shop with a Tech 2 scanner and hope they can diagnose the issue.

Discovered something while changing mirror glass...
IMG_1325.jpeg


I haven't noticed any wasps, so I think it's old.
Got 2 mirrors for $25 from ebay, so far so good. No more brown mirror!


I could not remove either old mirror without cracking them though..

Noticed only after installing that my driver side mirror's range of motion is lower down than the passenger side.
(I have mirror adjusted pretty much to uppermost limit on driver side)
Not sure if it was like that before (I suspect it was), or what causes it..

I had a local glass shop remove the old glass and install the new glass in one of my mirrors.

Also, I've had 2 or 3 trucks where the driver's-side electric mirror wouldn't adjust up [or down] far enough. After a maximum adjustment with the switch, I've nudged the mirror that tiny bit in the desired direction with my finger. So far, this has 'centered' the mirrors enough that the switch covers all desired mirror positions.

I'm not claiming this is good for the mirror's works, but I've had no trouble yet because of it.
