Guys,

Sorry I've been slow to reply...I kinda fell off the MUD / computer bandwagon a while ago and I rarely check this any more. Anyway, here are a few replies / comments

I like the SOR covers allot, but they do fade pretty quick. I haven't washed them yet...I'm hoping if I do they'll all at least fade to the same color. And yes, this is still the wifes DD. One of these days I'll retire this as a DD and buy her a little BMW to drive to work. She deserves it for putting up with me.

So I have done a few things since last summer when this thread first started. I was way sick of the crappy stock sound system so I sprung for a new Alpine W205 Multimedia station with Ipod, Sirius, DVD, Nav capability etc along with 2 new Alpine amps and all new Focal speakers all the way around. Everything is in the stock locations so I didn't have to hack anything up and it sounds bitchin! Long trips are now much more bearable. In fact on the way to Moab last week I watched two movies on the way across NV...pretty cool.

I also finally got my Long Range Auto 24 gal aux fuel tank installed...this was VERY nice to have for the trip we just did through the Maze country. It's also cool driving almost all the way from Moab to Sacto on one big fill.

While I was at it, I had Mudrak go through my front end and install the ARB locker and big compressor. So that pretty much wrapped up the mods until this trip I just did. Towing my M101 (full of everyone elses gas), and the weight of the storage cabinet full of gear, fridge full of food, aux tank full of fuel, rear bumper with 15 gals of more gas, roof rack full of crap etc lead me to a new need...AIR BAGS! That and I want to re-do my 2M set up and install the Yaesu 8800 up near the rear view mirror like Slee has on his Hundy...very slick. Then I'm DONE!
