Well, it's been a while since a rig review - things have been working reasonably well; a nice side effect of constantly evaluating and tweaking the setup of the truck to dial it in. Since last time, we've completed the following trips:
- Nevada Backcountry Discovery Route
- Bridge-to-Bridge in the Middle of Nowhere
- Dead Ends through WA, ID, and MT
- Roaming Around Rainier
So, lets dive right in.
TL;DR - I have four brand new 255/85 R16 ST/Maxx tires on the truck now. Again.
TL;DR - The mid-skid is now securely fastened to the frame again, nearly a year later!
TL;DR - I did a big sound deadening project, and it worked great.
TL;DR - After cinching down the cover for the tent a few hundred times, the stitching for one of the buckles on one of the cover straps ripped out. I sewed it back together and everything is good again.
TL;DR - the A/C blew cold this entire trip and seems to be going strong.
TL;DR - I don't really know what this is, but I'm going to keep monitoring it. Hopefully it's nothing.
Seemingly solved from previous Rig Reviews
- Relentless Skid Plate Attachment
- Cooper ST/Maxx Tires
- It's Noisy in the Cab
- The Air Conditioning Doesn't Work
Unchanged / Still an issue from previous Rig Reviews
There are some things that have been featured in Rig Reviews that are - as yet - unchanged from when I originally reviewed them. Rather than highlight those things again, I'll simply link to them here.
