Still 95 outside here. Hot as balls for a place that will be 100F colder in 9 months.

It has been under 40 once since 2006 here. Usually, "winter" is the 60s. Hilarious seeing locals in parkas at that temp. I'm in shorts & a flannel.

You going to drive it over anything that might hit that skid plate or are you just worried about curbs at the mall?

Lotta slow as fuck jeeps around these parts.

*edit*

What is this mall you refer to? I'm unfamiliar with this term.

But seriously, this vehicle (and Tundras) have 4 cats & are a huge target for cat theft. This protects the front set. I am looking into another plate for the back set.

Plus, it looks cool!

Slept in to 6am! Miracle but it was already 97 and I wanted to do the dog door so brakes will wait.

Turned out the screws are inside accessible from the opposite side of the door.

Home Depot would only sell a 10 foot roll of carpet and I need 53"x5" so fuck that.

You can probably get something suitable at a fabric store.

It was the same carpet as was in the bedrooms before we installed the wood floors.

She wants something similar. Honestly, left to my own devices, I'd just call it done.

Local mom and pop carpet stores are more likely to have some remnants "in the back" that they might be able to help you scrap something together. We used to do that in college... Go grab scraps of whatever to cover the floors and absorb the spilled beer soda.

Good idea, I found a few companies online that do that and emailed them yesterday.

I went out & picked the truck up. Damn thing has new rotors & pads all around. I'm too cheap to scrap new parts so the brakes are on hold until my cheapness is outweighed by my want to have neat-0 rotors. I might do the SS lines.

Interesting tracking info:

I need hose & clamps as the last pieces of my transmission cooler install. Need potentially 8 feet for each direction so ordered 16 feet.

Ordered store pickup got the ready for pickup email and went Monday, they had 8 feet. They said go to another store about a mile away, I said no thanks and canceled. Went home & reordered from that store a mile further away. Got the ready for pickup email, went they had none & offered me fuel injector hose (WTF)??? I said no.

Went home & ordered for delivery. Wonder what that will accomplish, it's theoretically out for delivery now.
