Haha, yeah, I learned that a few months ago...best thing to do is let me Mrs drive the truck once every once in a while and encourage them to stomp on it a little. If they have a pulse...they get that rush and then I say, "see why I like this thing so much"...and she has to begrudgingly say "ya, I get it". After a few week or a month when she starts to forget and starts to ask why I spend so much time working on or researching the truck....I just convienantly have her drive the truck again and stomp or or take it off-road some. Works like a charm!!!

I can't find it now but someone (I think @RDFTS) posted a picture of their exhaust cut right after the axle with a custom mount. I'm looking for the picture as I would like to do the same...

Anyone know the thread/location of that picture?

LOL, you don't want mine. It was cut like shit (apparently Jimbo cared, I didn't). But mine is cut off with the Ford Racing catback exhaust and how it was done I didn't get to use the last hanger. I believe @Big Blue has a better pic as I recall his does hookup better.

Working on my punch list currently:

- Oil change
- Install AFE lid
- Check over all fluids and top off as needed/set tire pressures
- Install H3R fire extinguisher seat mount and fire extinguisher
- Install amber film over rear facing Whelen Micro Pioneers and Rigid D2's - thanks @shooterAMG for dropping the film off this afternoon

Did he remind you to peel the clear film off BOTH sides of the material before installing....
