Is the product tintable? Do you recall the brand or name? It looks appealing to me.
Thanks
Who still uses their 45 for work?

As I was taking a load of green waste to the tip (dump), I passed two 45's being used by builders, and I often pass a couple of others being used by tradies ( contractors). Every time its out doing its thing it gets commented on.
It is tintable as we played around with it trying to get the “inferno” color in the new 4runner I saw. I’ll see if I can rustle up the name.

@crawlin cruiser Your truck with the hay is my favorite picture up to this point!
Does picking up Ipe wood to build an outdoor shower count?
Yep!!
I think this qualifies. A sad job today.We were 1st in to the "Holy Fire" destruction area in Trabuco Canyon CA. My cabin and 11 others bit the dust. The 45 shows its self to be a worthy beast wheeling over still hot ground to go round an oak tree across the trail.

Funny....... thats what I did with the 45 Friday here as well. Well done btw, looks great.
Looks good!
Looks good , what size tires are you running ? that's the look I'm going for.
Sliprock, Those are 35 12.5 -15 Wranglers. They are turds. They look cool but I have paid dearly in fuel. They also from the start have been noisy less than round crude tires. I have finally replaced them with good old 33 10.5-15 BFG all terrains. The truck loves them and so do I.

I love how the dog jumps right in the back. Good dog!

He scared me a little, after I made the cuts and was about to pull he wandered straight into the drop zone
This may sound a bit woos*ss, but if I was doing that, I'd have put a chain between the rig and rope. Ropes have a lot of tension in these situations, and if they break, they have a lot spring force that heads right at the tiedown. A co-workers son lost his life from a stretched cable (not a rope though) breaking. A chain will absorb most of the rope stretch if it breaks. Woos*assnes over.
Finally figured out how to get a decent ride out of it... delivered 150km's away.
