Yeah dude, you need those.
Pretty much 20mpg. I think the best I've ever seen was a little over 23. It's pretty much 19.5 to 20.5 ever single time
That’s pretty much identical to my 13bt. I’ve averaged 20 for the past 5 years. IMy best was 23.9. My tracking is over 5 years, over 2000 gallons and 45,000 miles. It’s been 3% off since the bigger tires 2 years ago so it should be 3% higher.
And the driver…
I understand upholding the standards for the brand. and what they did improve on looks great. I love the color by the way, and refreshtoration is one term that I originally heard from Onur. But most people aren't going to see what they did do and didn't do unless it was pointed out. I kind of like going on the easter egg hunts. I think yours is a sweet rig and you should be proud of it, they just seemed very negative towards you since the way you did it wasn't the way they would do it. On that note they would never want to touch mine because of all of the things that I have done to it.I really don't want to open a can of worms here.
I have a similar clientele to PRLC. People with high level of disposable income. I understand where Jeremiah is coming from. He has a brand. One that took time to build. So do I. When you start going against what you built, it undermines your own company. I struggle with this in my own business.
I choose Jeremiah and PRLC because I trusted him to execute what I wanted my rig to be. I spoke with a couple others as well, but I liked Jeremiah most.
The biggest thing was trust in making it exist as long as I need it to by negating rust issues. It had a lot of issues i knew about and way more that I didn't. They know all of the problem areas. Where tinworm likes to live, and they know how to kill it.
I never wanted to call it a restoration. The word just doesn't fit. I use my rig. I liked calling it a "refreshtoration". Right now I'm headed east on I-90 with it on the trailer. I spent the weekend running trails in the Black Hills of South Dakota. It's not a concourse queen. I picked it up less than a month ago, and I've put almost a thousand miles on it since running around home and some hard miles this weekend. I wanted the rust eradicated and it repainted. That's what I got, and I'm super happy with how it turned out.
This all started
I am NOT PRLC's demographic. I make a decent living, but this is by far the dumbest thing I've ever spent money on. My justification is that I spent 20 years working 80-100 hours a week and pouring every dollar I could back into my business. Fūck it, I want to be irrational.
But, i didn't have unlimited funds either.
I still think that your work is better than most, and most certainly better then my work. I don't know why that episode irked me, but it did. I quite like your bumpers and am a bit jealous of them.

I blame @OlYellr for stirring the pot
