You can now see the mirrors I put on yesterday! They almost look like 97+ mirrors on pre-97 doors. Huh.

I just cleaned out the bed for the first time since Fall. I plan to spray out the dirt at work tonight. Looks much cleaner without 6 months of trash and old parts in it.

Unfortunately, I also found another place where my Line-X is peeling, and (not pictured) a spot where it melted. Definitely wasn't applied properly. Bad mixture or something...

Scratch that. Just drove down the highway real quick to get the loose dirt and dust out. Line-X is gone in three nickel-sized places on the bed.

Supposed to have the best warranty in the business. I called a few weeks ago cause there are a few gauges to bare metal, and the liner is peeling off the tailgate as one big sheet. He said, "I've never heard of anything like that happening to Line-X, so it's probably from something you did. I guess I can take a look at it, though, if you bring it down here."

I need a nice day off work to drive almost 90 minutes each way so they can decide if they want to take responsibility.

Yeah, I'm gonna tell them I use it for firewood and car parts, which is 95% of what I haul.

New Mopar thermostat! I just hit 190° in a 5 minute idle, whereas I've been hitting 150° after 15 minutes of uphill highway driving.
