What did you do with your Grenadier today?

[ColoradoMike]

Well I added a tad bit of customization to highlight the Grenadier. Something pretty simple but we like the looks!

Did a wet install to make the letters align much better than dry. We matched the Lambda in the back with an American Flag but did not take pics of the install.

I had a small transport task last weekend in preparation for my 25th wedding anniversary. No problem.

This is the original Budweiser, not the fake one you have in the States ;-)

regarding Spaten:
You can't see what other crates are in the row behind...

Grip tape on the sliders (they are useable in soft shoes , not that I need to use the sliders (grab the gutter and leap in) , others might though). Also on the bottom 3 rungs of the ladder, which is otherwise very slippery when wet.
And installed the 270 awning. Still got enough clearance for my work car park

Hi, may I inquire what tape was used for the ladder steps?

I think Tazzieman posted Gorilla Grip somewhere else. AU Amazon link here. US Amazon would have it.

I have used skateboard non skid decking in the past…self adhesive and I would think that the stuff today is even better…good luck

For the Aussies the stuff I use is croc tape from Bunnings. It's very durable and as you know a croc grips harder than a gorilla.

Went for my 24k mile service (actually 27,600ish) @ Curry in CT. They did a great job and she got her second bath .

My drivers side washer pump was failing at my last service so they ordered one and replaced it this time. Passenger side doing the same this time now that is on order. Guessing somehow they get clogged causing the issue. Hopefully it won’t be an ongoing issue.

Oil Change, brake fluid flush, cabin air filter, and software update for trailer signaling issue.

Had them look at the drive shaft just to be safe. Good thing as it was torn (see pic). Luckily they had it in stock and were able to replace it. Service said it probably tore relatively recently (within about 1k miles or so) as the grease was still wet and not a lot of dirt was present to foul the gearing. I’d guess my mileage is 95-98% asphalt and mostly highway driving.

Good save!
I routinely pop underneath the car for a "health check" each week, and before/after off road (including gravel road) drives.
Keeps me healthy too!

That's my first long road run and it was more comfortable than I was expecting.

That's good fuel ️ consumption considering speed and AC on. On the Bridgestones I reckon that would have added another 1-2 mpg.

I was quite happy with the economy today.
I am approaching 19,000km on the odo and I think the vehicle has really settled in the last 5,000km. I still have the occasional software glitch post the 2940 update but everything else is working well. It's stock as a rock. No big tyres, lifts, aftermarket dampers, etc. Just as IA delivered.

Put in the Agile off-road Baja lights. They are bright. Excellent instructions online for removal of components with step by step. No extra bolts which often happens to me.
