I'm dropping this here since SOMEONE who recently bought a TB registered but hasn't posted yet.

Sandlover is gonna look like she rolled through a kitty litter box when all that sand gets caked to the tire shine. That's sacrilegious right there
Edit: I bet there's tire shine on that spare up top too

there's nothing wrong with a clean ride, as long as you don't mind getting it dirty.
I have been guilty of taking the long way to visit my parents though because I had just washed our truck.

Donny said after all the blood, sweat, tears and $$$ spent on the TB it is like one of his kids. Even when they grow up they will always be his

The TB is still his too.... We just share it! Yes there is shinny stuff everywhere. I am not afraid to get it dirty! Just afraid to do it alone.

I don't sell or trade in my former rides - I look for acceptable adoptive homes. The application essay can take a week to complete, since it runs 18 pages.

I'm guilty of the tire shine, but in my own defense my truck sits in direct sun light parked at work while I'm gone for a couple days at a time. No shady places, I only use it to prevent the uv rays from cracking the rubber or so the type i have claims to prevent it. I have no problems getting them mud covered after being dressed up, I just don't want weak points developing in them

When I read the previous post, I started wondering if there was a "Truck Ownership Agreement", then I scrolled down.
This is an aggressive post. You probably won’t like it. It is quite doubtful that you have the taste or sophistication to be able to appreciate a post of this quality and depth.

What I read was if you never use it...that is best, but once you do, you need to.continue because the natural moisture has been displaced.
they've always worked for me.
