Re: My 52 GMC Build
So with how much I have been driving the truck this year. My music situation was getting annoying (plug headphone jack into phone, turn on amp, select music and adjust). So I went out and got a sweet deck, no CD. It is half the depth of a regular deck. The amp now powers a 10" sub behind the seat and I mounted the deck in the back of the glove box. Works and sounds great.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
Today I finally got to installing the door to floor wind lance. That will stop the one draft I have in the truck. I had them for about a year but I misplaced the steel keepers.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
I've been debating on a stereo setup. Looks like a decent solution.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
Today was a lot of back and forth with the skid steer, with the occasional tamping. 8 of these bins of top soil out and there will be 10-12 tri-axle of A-gravel in to get grade. They have to go a long way through my garage. They should be done filling and packing by the end of today.
