I added a grocery getter to the driveway. A very quick grocery getter. Still love my Cummins!

Did you get the camp kitchen slide under bed? Would you honestly recommend it? Not to replace a Cummins ever, I know lol.. but as a secondary vehicle the wife could boot around in?

I didn't order the camp kitchen. The truck seems to be made very well and has a lot of cool features. 0-60 mph in 3 seconds brings a big grin. I definitely do recommend it.

These are going on the used market for so much over the sales price I may end up flipping it. Very hard decision to make. I have been waiting for the truck for almost 3 years. I put the deposit down in June 2019.

First time I have had rat go after one of my vehicles. It chewed on a couple of the auxiliary wire ends I had installed and I had capped off. I fixed those. Later, when I went to use my windshield washer it didn't spray. I could hear the pump though. After pressing it a couple times the low washer light came on. I stopped by the parts store and picked up more washer fluid. Still didn't spray. This time I notice fluid dripping under the truck. The rat bastard had gotten up under the hood cover and chewed the hard plastic washer line in half.

I saw rat bastard several times but I couldn't get it. I tried to discourage it with dryer sheets, mothballs, cinnamon and some other things but nothing worked. I don't use poison because there are so many owls around - apparently lazy owls. I finally bought one of the traps that electrocute off Amazon. Put it under the hood with a motion IP camera focused on it. It took a week or so but I got RB! No mess to clean up and it is more humane than a snap trap. The factory washer assembly was under $20 before shipping. Bit of a PIA to replace up under there but it didn't take too long.

They can be a real pain for sure. When we head out to the desert I put a 100' string of led lights around the truck to keep packrats away. None of the other remedies work on them but lights do as they avoid lit areas.
