Drove it to work. Kinda starting to put on the miles with this new job. I know it's nothing compared to others on here but 45 minutes one way all highway is a lot for me. Never had that far to drive, but ya gotta go where the work is.

Mine average 70-80 miles per day plus 250+ on the weekends... There are plenty of us running our trucks as DDs.

87 miles since I left work yesterday. Would have been more if I went to my house tonight. Gonna need an oil change this week or next. I'm not scared to drive it. 216k miles and it's the only vehicle I've had that I'm not afraid to jump in and drive to Florida with a loaded trailer behind me.

isnt that why we have diesels for the longevity aspect of it? lol i cant talk much currently as my once dd truck is a play toy now but from '04-'10 i drove it everyday 7 a week racked up around 5-600 miles a week sometimes more.
Stripped mine down to the frame....torched the whole suspension off. Its a frame on jackstand. Axles are on jackstands.
Thinking about doing SEM rustmort on the frame after I remove the dr side overload stops and swaybar links. All my oem steering and suspension pieces showed up today. I have all new oem springs and hangers shackles for it. Got a set of sulastic shackles for the rear. Trying to decide what size block I need.
Black carpet showed up yesterday. Along with new front fenders from Ferd.
Need a new or rustfree bed. The one I have original to the truck is shot. The one I bought two years ago has a rotted crossmember and offbeat skin on the passengers side. I dont want a sema painter doing his thing on a chinese fender made out of Campbell's soup cans LOL
Oh, and my rear, solid glass showed up Monday on my bday!! Woohoo! But the front did NOT.....Hmmmm

Threw some switchback bulbs in the front turn signals last week with the resistors I also bought. Curious if they actually get super hot or not. 6000k color so now I either need LED bulbs or projector retrofits to match. Waiting to get pulled over and get to let some rookie cop make an ass out of himself saying I don't have Amber turn signals. All the while I sit there with my 4-ways on with amber turn signals flashing away.

Good to know. The warning paper that came with them said they might and not to mount them on plastic. Funny part was that they came with plastic zip ties to mount them with. No screws. I mounted them to the back side of the metal behind the headlights. Way to go on that zip tie call sylvania.
Im not a mexican so I bought a flasher that does all that, no issues with any type of bulb, im not stuck with led or vice versa. My buddy royally ***ked up his truck using ebay chit and purple ***kin headlights.
Those resistors have caught on fire in peoples vehicles. Sounds fun!

Nothing exciting here. Finished a few things getting ready for a trip to Hampton, VA. Swapped out the front bumper with a free '12 model. Fogs should be here next week. Interested to see if the extra ~2-3" of air dam does anything for mileage on the trip. ~360 miles each way. If not Ill put the stocker back on. I like the stock bumpers on these trucks, aside from not having a place to stand when under the hood.
