Can that one roll up or is it a lift up only?

I'm not really sure, one of the reasons I'm getting it is because it sits pretty much flat with the bed rails and doesn't bowed up, plus it's $80. I hope it only lifts up, I've had too many other peoples furniture in the bed lately

I really wanted to get an A.R.E. fiberglass tonneau but after seeing it rub the paint off of my dads tailgate and rubbing the paint off of some members bed sides I decided it wasn't worth it.

It looks nice, I'm just not much a bed cover guy. Seems like I never know when I'm gonna throw something big in the back.

I like them to keep the bed dry. In the winter it kind of sucks having a bed half full of snow.

It's just more weight over the rear for traction.

Although I was impressed with my truck and the Terra Grapplers last winter for the 9" of snow we got, that eventually turned to ice.

I'm anxious to see how the Grapplers do in the winter. I know last year on my bald Good Year's the truck handled very well, I only NEEDED 4x4 once but used it in a few places for a short period, and it didn't do anything funny when going through slush or going 45-50 in the passing lane with 4-5" of snow :o

Hope everyone had a good Halloween !! I had a blast taking my kids out watching them run door to door
My wife painted up our faces to take the kidlets out.. She did a great job but man I wanted to claw the side of my face off

Morning.


That's not even funny Matt, I already have one Deere that I aquired because it went up in flames I don't need another one.

I knew it wasn't Dave's. It has a seat on it.

I saw those pics on fb Craig, she did an awesome job

I think I'm going to program my truck to the 93 performance or 91 (whatever it is) in a couple of weeks and then save for a wideband. After I get my brakes and such done, I want to get that tune all dialed in. I'm paranoid, it runs fine, but I hate not knowing if it's perfect or not. I was looking at the innovative W/B. When I get new cats installed I'm thinking about asking the shop to weld in a new O2 bung for the wideband and then plug it until I get the W/B. Any suggestions? Does that seem like a good idea? Also the Factory intake I bought this past summer (replaced my painted on), it has a covered hole with a rubber cover on it going directly into the air box. COuld I use that for a probe or IAT's and run a guage or could that be a vaccum gauge?
