Not necessarily a mod or maintenance or anything, but a point of convenience that I spent time working to find the best solution for that seemed worth sharing.
So I love having an "always at the ready" knife/multitool that's available just by opening the driver door, whether that use case is for a truck repair, cutting open someone's lunch snack that won't open, trimming a piece of tree branch out of a taillight, etc. I had a trusty pocket knife that lived in this spot for >4 years but the horrific cold plus maybe some use in a way a knife shouldn't be used led to its untimely death. I ordered and tried a bunch of multitools in the traditional folding sense but ultimately settled on a Rocktol multitool-pocket-knife-combo. Needed it to a) fit in the Lexus' door next to my flashlight, b) be easy to carry, and c) cost <$30. Tall order, but this thing is pretty sweet especially for $20 since I didn't want to spend Leatherman Skeletool money. Can leave it in the door pocket or in my pants pocket as need be. A nice little addition.

Always great catching up with Vaughn Gittin Jr., been a bit since Chris and I had him on OTRA and he’s still having as much fun as ever. Ton of cool RTR s*** happening now and Dan pulled a heroic effort to make us look like pros.
