Did i just get lucky??

Up 50% is far fetched. I’m sure there are some special cases but not an average of 50%.

Perhaps 50% is a local thing, Austin's economy is superheated.

USA Today says 40%, and I did say over 2-years not annual as usually quoted.

Used cars cost 40.5% more than last year as gas prices rise. New car prices also climbing

Within a year, the average price of used cars and trucks for urban consumers has gone up by 40.5%. New vehicles have gone up 12.2%

I’ve read all of your context and just stating that no one, well me in particular, should be “forced” by any dealer to pay ADM. Also, I was continuing on with your “what if” scenario. Again, if all buyers agree not to pay ADM, then what happens?

I'll pay $100 more than MSRP, get mine, and the rest of you can suck it. Duh. I'll pay what I want, when I want. TFB if someone else doesn't like it. I suppose they can whine on the internet about it. I'm sure that will help.

Baja design lp4 installed on the a pillars. I tapped the passenger side marker running light to power the yellow backlighting. These lights run 6.5amps each so I may have to switch the upfitter from 2 to 3 to get 15amps. But WOOOWEEE are these lights insanely bright…

Also ordered weather tech mud flaps, got the windows tinted and messed with forscan a bunch. Purchased some black lugs and changed out the chrome OEM ones. Also picked up the rigid yellow fog light covers $20 each. Not sure I like them yet or not… Also installed a matte screen protector which is super nice!! No glare and perfect clarity.

Small little touches make all the difference. Foutz rear spacers with some RPG or SVC are up next.

Nice setup! Upfitter 2 & 3 are both 15 amps. Is something wrong with switch #2?

Oh cool! I thought #2 was only 10amps…

I thought on the Gen 2s
15amp 1,2
10 amp 3,4
5 amp 5,6?

Bed storage baskets installed. They clip in to the factory cleat location which seems to be the same size as the etrack storage setup. So anything w the etrack clip should work. I plan on installing a retrax so I’m not worried about getting stuff stolen. Simple cheap and easy storage solution. $36 each.
