Installed my Magnaflow Overland exhaust today. Bit of a pain in the ass since I’ve only done exhausts on motorcycles previously and had to go buy deep sockets and a hanger tool, but pretty happy with the end result.

One reason I really like this exhaust is that you can adjust the sound level with parts they include. I left off the NDT resonator and just capped the extension pipe off the muffler for now, so if it gets annoying or my wife starts getting irritated with me I can quiet it further. Sounds good right now though! 🤘

Had the replacement Ranger windshield tinted with 70% Xpel Prime XR Plus. The difference in feel and light intensity inside the truck was immediate.
Jeanie's not very happy with me at present, as it was expensive...but I'm the one that drives the truck and it was important to me to get it done.

Let the beatings begin...

I REALLY like it...and I suspect once you have it you will too.
$190 sounds like a decent price. I paid more for the Prime Plus stuff.
But it works, so there's that.

Finally put some lights on the Tremor! Put a pair of Baja Design Squadron Sport in the lower grill opening and man I am glad to have them on. Just peace of mind for off-road even at dusk. Took a drive tonight to adjust them.

Debating if I want ditch lights on this vehicle. They come in handy but this placement really covers my bases. I also like the sleeper look too.

$79 for better gun
$70 for soap cannon
$100 for detailing cart for all the crap
$100 for various quick connects
$189 for wall mounted pressure hose reel
$360 for fancy garden hose reel
$49 for various different orificed nozzle (gotta get the right orifice!)
$59 for folding work platform
