    If You Were Gonna Get A Diesel Truck STRICTLY For Towing...

    Why'd you get rid of the 3500 or is that a Doh! question?

    06-07 LBZ. Then again they're also the hardest to find around here.

    Corroded hose fitting on my FS-2500 bypass oil filter

    Nice looking replacements. It sucks that the salt just eats everything under the truck.

    Factory 2011 Fog Lamp

    The headlights look dim in comparison. Definitely a touch too bright for oncoming traffic bit I don't plan on using them all the time...I've got them aimed down so they don't blind everyone.

    Corroded hose fitting on my FS-2500 bypass oil filter

    Good thing you caught it in the driveway, that could have been much worse. Also a good thing you knew to go to a hydraulic hose house to get another one made. Ed, that's just a typical 37* female swivel used pretty much everywhere in industrial hydraulics.

    Factory 2011 Fog Lamp

    Shew. Why couldn't they use a normal bulb? Same here, Jeff. I want the white light but not the HID look... the Rigid D series driving lights aren't that much more than the Recons and I found Rigid mounting brackets on another site that supposedly work with the 11-up super duties. Not serious...

    Factory 2011 Fog Lamp

    That blows, $40 for just the lens? I've been looking at these, supposedly a direct replacement for the factory housings instead of going with a 9005 hid kit. http://www.gorecon.com/product.php?pk=432&pname=Part-264502CL-LED-Square-Driving-Light-Kit-w-Chrome-Internal-Housing

    Topper for my Truck!!

    Glad to hear you found what you wanted. Yes, I live in Lithia...Mulberry is close by. There isn't too much in either one, whereabouts do you fly your rc planes at? There is a pretty big rc park and bmx track near me in the Boyette area.

    Topper for my Truck!!

    Go with the LEER. I had a 100xq on my 01 and a 700 tonneau cover on the 06. The paint was perfect on both, plus from what I had seen, especially on the fiberglass tonneau covers, LEER has better looking designs that seem to flow with the style of the truck better than the ARE covers did.

    Maintenance Day

    Nice. I remember at about 20k my big prefilter would start to clog up and it would shift strange under hard acceleration. Did you ever add a lift pump? I didn't have one.

    Picked up a TDI Cup Edition today.

    Check out idparts for maintenance stuff... Mann filters, oil, etc. But you're on tdiclub so you probably already knew that.

    What kind of Phone?

    Ed, my Lenovo tablet has that Corning Gorilla Glass and I have yet to scratch it. UPS shows the new phone will come in tomorrow.

    What kind of Phone?

    You guys are right, some of the phones are huge... I was surprised how big the S4 and the One actually are when you hold them. I've got an Otterbox Commuter cover on my dying Evo and it has protected the phone but the plastic screen protector is lifting at the corners and looks like ka-kah...

    What kind of Phone?

    Just ordered an HTC One to replace the phone I have with the battery that now lasts about 2 hours. It was a tossup between that and a Samsung Galaxy S4 but a lot of people said it felt plastic-y and fragile compared to the HTC. Also picked out an Otter Box Defender cover for it.

    Tinted Windows, How Dark Are Yours? Cost?

    I have 20% on my truck. Had 15% on a car I just got rid of. Neither were too dark to see out of. How dark you should go depends on what you want, the laws and the desire of local agencies to enforce them. I've never been bothered and have never heard of Leos bothering others about tint here...

    6.2L Ferd Tunes

    I wish GM had an updated gas engine for the HD trucks. The 6.2 they put in the 1500s would be a monster but they stuck with the outdated 6.0 for whatever reason. That's not the same engine they put in the Caprice, is it? People are waiting to see what Ford does with the SD gas engine... rumors...

    What kind of Phone?

    I've gotten used to Android phones. Have an HTC Evo 4G that's got a battery which lasts a half day keeping the wimax turned on of I'm lucky. I'm looking at either an HTC one , a Samsung galaxy S4 or (can't believe I'm saying this) an iPhone 5. May also look to switch carriers to get off the...
