Ya think?

Seen from our sunroom this AM - a lot of noise, chasing around, squawking or whatever they do...........after while, about 20 others showed up.

As far as "do" - yesterday I finished putting stuff in place in my wife's JLU like strap and receiver shackle mounts, D ring shackles and such, and finished up making sure I had the stuff in mine, tried to organize it all. There's a whole lot of stuff under and behind those seats! Blankets, jumper cables, light, ratchet straps to secure loads in the back, tow strap, winch controller, snow plow controller. It's packed, the seats barely go back into position. Probably should find a better way.
I have recipes.
They're delicious!

I took a chance with the color but I think it matches yellow better than most other colors except maybe black
I like it. Mine are a similar color. I also second guessed the decision until I mounted them. They’re great.

Someone hit a skunk this morning. Didn't kill it. It was in the middle of the road spraying everything that went passed it. Including my work truck.
I hate it when that happens.
Now your work truck will easier to find in a dark parking lot. ;)

I installed my new smart-cap EVOa adventure camper shell. Very pleased with packaging and boxes labeled fit and finish. Perfect.

soak the hood and decals like crazy… dripping wet with soapy water. Take your time with a squeegee and let it dry completely before the next layer. So far it’s looking good. Wait till you get into 3 and 4 layer decals ?

i was surprised how i could see behind me with it in place, haven’t drove it at night yet the back window is tinted pretty dark which is good for prying eyes seeing what’s in the back, the one with side windows would help probably.

I installed a DiamondBack HD bed cover. I took advantage of their Black Friday sale. I did the install myself and it wasn't too difficult. I used three 40 LB bags of salt to help push on top of the cover to compress the gaskets while making the latch adjustments. As part of this installation, I also installed the Mopar Trail Rail kit and the ESI tailgate sealing kit.

I added my Hooke Road side steps to my '23 Freedom edition.

They have re-engineered these since the last set I had on my '21.

They have contoured the bars to fit the cab better, as the previous ones where just straight, making the rear side stick out a bit more, showing the under seam where the mounting holes are.

Here is a comparison...

Original set:
