AzScorpion's Money Pit 2 Build

[Trigganometry]

I do need to get one soon. I still have to register it (waiting for all the paperwork to be Fed-Exed now) and our sales tax and vehicle tax are a killer here. It'll be over $4,000 just for those two so the dash cam might have to wait a little longer. Seeing as there was no trade in I have to pay sales tax on the full amount of $49,210.00.

I thought full replacement value included sales tax! Well that ain’t right ?

Welcome to the dark side. Love that Termor…now pull off those stickers. It’s obvious it’s bad ass and you don’t need no stinking stickers on that truck. ?

Thanks Bro, so far I'm loving it too! I was going to take them off but once I saw it in person I kind of like them. It kind of breaks up all the white down the sides.

Best door protector out there! Give it some time before you start seeing paint chips of different colors imbedded in them ?

It does, they covered all the sales tax and the reg fees. But I still had $4,250 left on the loan on my '19 so the check from the Insurance was minus that. It was enough to pay for the new one outright (I added $1,250) but now I need to come up with the sales tax/fees. If I bought a non Tremor it would've been less because the Tremor package adds $4,290 to the price.

Dave...knew about what happened back in April to MP 1, but we were on the road during your venture to pick up MP 2, so couldn't post due to non-secure wi-fi in most campgrounds.
Glad everything worked out for you and that your now adding to the wealth of many companies via buying new "stuff" for MP 2.

I just installed the clear door edge guards. These are 8mil thick and come in a 5/8"x150" roll which is more than enough to do all 4 doors. I found this video which if you follow it makes it super easy to instal. You really do need a heat gun or a very hot blow dryer to warm these up and there's about 20" left over.

I like the Tremor stickers.

OMG !!!! I grew up with that stuff....both grand parents had that on their furniture. Also had the clear plastic runners going over the throw rugs leading from the wood floors up to each piece of furniture. Could not walk on the carpets for fear of death by grandma, or worse !!!
They had that stuff in their cars also...dealer add-on back then (50's and 60's)
No AC back then so when you sat you stuck to the plastic, and when you got up it was like pulling tape off...you had to un-peel yourself.

Thanks Marc. It's the old damper off MP1. It had 32,000 miles on it so now I'm going for the 100,000 mile torture test to see if it goes ?.?

Promises promises...Msfitoy will have 400,000 miles and I'll be 80 year old by then... ?

I did, I said it doesn't take long to cycle once it's up to temp.

So if you have it set to 36* it cycles for a few minutes (maybe 5-7 it depends on the ambient temp you're in) then shuts off. BUT when you first start it up it will run for about 20-30 minutes depending on what temp you set it at. It will never constantly run unless you have it in direct heat/sun and you're in freezer mode. Even then I've left mine in the back seat of my '19 all day while we were in Moab/Canyonlands and I only used about 40% power from my Bluetti EB55 power station.

I got it now, you use the power station for the cooler, just call me Mr Dumass…

I like the Tremor stickers.

I say trade them with Sport stickers for the double take views..

That would now make you the politician! ?

Potentially maybe however we have got to work on your Tremor identity crisis.

Needed the plastic especially if you let your soul glo in the 80’s
