What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

[Dougstdig]

Finally finally the planets aligned and promised myself I’d do something for me. I dropped what I was doing (work…always work…) this morning and gave the fella’s a call at Clayton. One reasonable dent later in the ‘ol’ account and I got them to agree to have it delivered the week of the 6th. First time I ever had to negotiate a shipment later, but I’m happy nonetheless. The install begins the 11th.

I do too. 1700 sqft garage. Not your pole building, but a dream come true. I’ll remodel the house for the rest of her life as a thank you.

Dan you said you were getting a garage….not a Parking garage! I’m really glad it worked out , that garage is great…Jack

Thanks very much! My Christmas present to myself today is to cut up these stupid shelves the previous owner left. Too big. Waste if good floor space. I’d rather hang things from walls and ceilings.

Dan now you are just teasing us , yup we see the slop sink and the central vacuum! Damn now I kbow why you didn’t know how many bedrooms or bathrooms it has you just stood there in the garage babbling, “ this is the one, this is it honey”!!!

Since I didn’t get heated seats, I looked at other options without paying crazy prices. Wanted cooling seats too for Gulf Coast summers. Found this & took a chance. Was skeptical but this is definitely legit at just over $100.

Wanted to try some new tires, so went to Discount and had the Nitto Terra Grappler G3's put on in 285/70-17 with Fuel Covert wheels. Love the look! The ride is better than the stock Overland 18's ( softer) and cornering seems vastly improved.
Downside...man these things are loud! Comparing strictly to the street tires that were on it, these things roar!

You should try some old Cooper STT’s

Sweet garage. Lots of room and 3 doors it looks like. Do you still have riverfront?

No. We’re selling the house on the river. Trading for more garage and larger lot.

You may want to keep that one that’s against the wall. Yes, they are big and ugly, but some shelves are handy.

I think I’d rather have strong wall hanging shelves. I want the floor space. I already killed two of the three today.

Thanks, Jack. It’s a dream. Can’t wait to get it organized. It’s a pile currently.

I had fun removing shelves before cutting them up.

Same to you and everyone else here as well.

Now that's the way to do it.
Looks like you've given yourself years worth of projects to do. Having a garage is the best. Just wish mine was larger but it's better than nothing. Congrats Dan, I know you'll love it.
