You have to park like bro. People are assh*les. lol
And you're right,.......a little walk won't kill anyone. Good for the heart and starts the workout out right.

Pretty funny, one of my friends on the Ram forum was like,....."Dude, is that even in the same state"?!?
LMMFAO

Scheduled the appointment for the Stage One clay/polishing/cleaning/buffing, (which is standard prior to doing the CQuartz Finest), then 2 coats of CQuartz Finest will be applied on the exterior and on all 4 wheels. Expensive, but the product is very expensive and it is labor extensive. I could have went with a less expensive product, but it's worth paying the extra cash for a daily driver in the Northeast.

I'm not getting it done till May. I wanted to make sure winter was fully gone. Plus, I had to book up now as they get super busy as the weather gets warmer.

So, I just passed 2,000 miles yesterday on the way home from work. I've been getting on it a little bit more and more since it's getting broken in. This truck is fast! Loving the remote start and all the other interior features. Pretty awesome.
Two posts on two different Ram forums were saying that they can't imagine how quick my truck must be being a regular cab Sport. They say with theirs being Sport quad cabs, they have some fast trucks. LOL (I can only imagine how quick it would be with mods.) I'd love to line up with any brand new stock truck out there today, including the new Raptor when it comes out.
Friday she goes in for her professional detail and CQuartz Finest applications.
Pics to follow,......................

Got her done yesterday. Looks f*cking insane. Love it. SO worth the money.
PLUS,...with CQuartz Finest, you have to sign a contract with CarPros and be authorized to use this stuff. Very easy to mess it up if it isn't applied correctly.
These photos are from this morning. I drove home in the rain for an hour last night and took it to the bank this morning on wet roads. Still looks killer!
(paint correction and 2 coats of CQuartz Finest applied through the exterior of the truck.)

Some photos right after it was done on Friday.
I might get the windows tinted with the Suntek tint that they use. Legal on both fronts and get the whole back window, including slider, blacked out a little more. My interior is already black, so that should darken it up. We'll see, I'm still thinking about it.

looks awesome Tony. My Infiniti could probably benefit from that. But my 1998 CRV will not be worth it. lol

Thanks Burton. Yeah, your Infiniti could definitely benefit from that indeed. It's funny, they want to do my GHIG.I had shown them photos on my phone. I told them, I don't think so. lol The guy I was dealing with, Pete, is a hands on guy, but also takes care of the customer service, said if I ever want to sell it, they may know a very potential buyer. I told him I already promised someone else first dibs, but very good to know.
How is the Infiniti Burton? Have you been driving it?

Who's the buyer? LOL. Me??!?!?!?!? pretty please?

Quincy is doing good man. She has 1900 miles. I rarely drive her either. We take her on family weekend hauls - to kids games, etc. Next week we're taking her to Minnesota! I try not to get her too dirty because it takes me 2 hours to wash her. LOL

That's awesome man. Glad you're enjoying it. Sounds like my truck. I have less than 2,500 miles on it and it's 5 months old! lol I don't work far from work, which is a bonus. Same with the gym, just about the same distance.
Have a great/safe trip if I don't talk to you till then.

Expensive new vehicles, barely getting driven.
Meanwhile that hefty monthly payment is still coming up and getting paid every month.
Wouldn't you guys feel better making that payment if you drove them more?

I'll be honest bro,..........I'm not concerned one bit. Not at all. If I was, I wouldn't have gotten a $1,000 detail on the truck.
Actually, I don't pay it every month either. Every couple of months. I have it paid off till July. No payment till the end of July. Easy peasy bro.

Gabe... I hate monthly payments, remember? I don't believe in that. If I have to pay installments or a loan on vehicles, then I shouldn't get it.

I wish I could do that. I can't afford to pay off a brand new vehicle in only a couple of months.
If I had my old job/pay at the last shop I worked at before the communists and anti-Americans killed this Country, I was making great money. I would be A LOT better, obviously. Now, I do "okay". lol

I guess it's safe to assume that you don't feel the Bern.
