Sport Headlight Idea

Yeah, back in the day with my other trucks I used to wear my mud proudly for weeks. Then I discovered what it would do to my undercarriage and body panels over time. Now, I pressure wash immediately. Same with my dirt bikes. Damn things are too expensive to fix.

man, you'd want to kill your self after working on the farm for a while, its not uncommon to get mud on the roof of a vehicle just leaving a field, especially in the heavier soil we farm
then when your in the field, there is usually a thick cloud of dust, i can make mud with it when i clean my windshield
harvest is the worst, there is a large cloud of dust and chaff out the back of the combine, especially when harvesting soybeans
when harvesting corn, ive found cobs in the bed of my truck
plus im usually too busy to clean it while we are in the field
but the worst part, even with the windows up, dust still seems to get into my truck, and its impossible to get rid of it, ive tried, there is always some left
when i first bought the truck, it was already a farm truck, and i turned on the heater, and beeswings from corncobs blew out the vents

I grew up wheeling in the S. Florida mud. I know what dirty is, trust me. I also know what it's like to have a farmer bring a tractor over to pull my stuck-to-the-fenderwells truck out after 2 days of trying to get unstuck and sleeping in the cab. That was when I was younger and stupider. Now, my trucks are for pleasure, comfort and getting my dirtbikes to the track. I take better care of them. I respect that you actually work with yours, though.

Fast forward to now. I'm in his shop pulling off the dash to install my radio and I bust out laughing. I call him over and show him the vents all caked with sand. He turns to me and says, "Karma," and walks away. I didn't need an explanation.

My bad, that's all I took off, too. If you look at the vent opening with the grilles off, they have a foam surround. The sand was all caked in the foam and stuck to the plastic where it meets the grilles. I told him we're even now because I'm still finding his dog's hair in every nook and cranny.
