just looking at your tail lights and it reminded me of some I have seen with integrated back up lights. might interest you so less lights on the back but still fully functional.

You are correct, sir. Especially with all this ridiculousness going on currently. So, my response to this virus crap? Take a week or two vacation and lock myself in the shop one day, hit the bass lake the next, repeat.

I hear ya..I'm kinda of a home body so I don't mind being locked up at home. I have said when this started that is has made for some good garage time.

Stay safe and have fun with the garage/fishing

a covid update
it seems there are a few thing we can do. like don't share stuff. some cases have come up where the shared utensils at work have passed along the virus. like when you have a meal together and everybody uses the same utensil to load the spaghetti on their plate. the utensil was handled by everybody so the germs are on the handle. same for the lunchroom table, phone receivers, computer terminals etc. anyway, something to think about.

Those are interesting for sure. I'm most likely going back to a stock location, though. Those mounted in the rear bed crossmember were from the last build of this truck in the 90's.
