Carlisle truck nationals were fun, No sightings of Tony Angelo... and no issues from the truck other than Cheapo rebuilt alternator decided it couldn't output anymore than 12V with nothing but the radio on, made it all the way to the hotel just had to run with the AC off.
Swapped it out for a new one in the hotel parking lot Friday evening and the trip home had no issues.
AC I think is still a little under charged, seems to be freezing up on the highway after about 30 minutes or so... letting it "defrost" with the AC off and blower on takes maybe 5 minutes. so it wasn't THAT big of an issue just a little annoying.
Didn't take any pictures of my truck at the show or hotel, just a single shot on the Pa turnpike with sliding hill in the background.

Annnnnd I finally got the powder coating stuff set up in my garage, spare 0411 top cover test piece.

So I finally get to recoat the control arms that the stock coating peeled off after the first year, refinish the brake calipers in a metallic grey hopefully close to matching the lower portion of the body.

And just for the hell of it, heres a sunset picture at my neighborhood park a few weeks ago.
