You guys are being a bunch of pussies if you think it's mandatory you have to yank out jackstands just to change a fucking tire... geez... maybe make sure your moms are there too in case you get some dirt on your chinny chins?

why spend money on jack stands when you can just buy 4 jacks?

Let's hope spring is here!!! 
Time to annihilate the sea to sky with PSS!!
On another note...not sure what this means for my alignment. The worn part is the inner side of the rear tire. I had the alignment set to near OEM settings with no extra negative camber than stock. I did drive it harder this season and went sideways many times in the rain and always in the snow. LOL. The fronts are perfectly fine.  | |

LOL I don't use them for wheel swaps since my body is not under the vehicle. Worst that happens is it falls on a rotor and I have a to bend the dust shield back. The jack would be high enough the body won't hit the ground and it's only vulnerable for about 30 seconds a corner while I swap wheels. [emoji1417]

Plus you won't end up smashing your brakes into the ground.

Glossworks did a bi-annual ceramic and XPEL wrap decontamination today which adds 5 mins to a regular hand wash...  
Haven't had to clay, buff, polish, or wax the finish in over two years! Just a quick soapy clean when it gets dirty.

Picked up a new rental couple weeks back: 
I've never felt so bad driving a vehicle to site:  
I do my best to take good care of any of my vehicles, rental or not, but this is simply not the environment for a truck like this... lol

Hit a magical number today. Marks (approximately) 40k km that i've owned and driven the car.
Not sure what to do with it long term though. Something new is a want as a bunch of maintenance stuff needs to be addressed soon at 100k. However, its worth pennies in trade value and there's nothing that really directly replaces this.
