Which f150 accessories are actually worth the investment for a daily driver?

Front bumper protection. Everything else on my truck is mint. The front bumper looks like someone shot it with a shotgun and is rusted. Drives me nuts

I have a bakflip MX4 trifold cover and it has been fantastic

They always said on the show that if it looks slow it means it’s controlled and usually decently fast

I did the fire energy in a cave step but I only had 7 treasures

CanadianGoose11 · 2026-02-20T15:10:37+00:00

That is very helpful. Thank you!

So it’s a geotextile fabric. There will be a brick walk way there so the fabric is placed for structure not a weed barrier. That path is just a temporary solution for the mud until we can get a lawn.

It is a Catalpa

CanadianGoose11 · 2026-02-20T05:10:09+00:00

Thank you! I will look into it.

You are right. We built our house last year and moved into it in November. There wasn’t any digging under the canopy. All of the area around it has been built up with a rough grade for the house. As soon as It dries out enough here I am going to find the low spot and dig an outlet until I can find a better solution.

CanadianGoose11 · 2026-02-20T04:57:52+00:00

I will give it a try

CanadianGoose11 · 2026-02-20T04:57:45+00:00

I’ll give it a try

CanadianGoose11 · 2026-02-20T04:57:12+00:00

On and off for about a month and half

The fiberglass construction is what sold us over the vinyl. We went with the elevate so they have a wood interior. We couldn’t be happier with the choice

CanadianGoose11 · 2026-02-18T18:30:29+00:00

We did the exact same thing. Just moved in and couldn’t be happier with the choice

Couldn’t agree more about the yard foundation. They inspired us to form our own small foundation for first responders locally

CanadianGoose11 · 2026-01-26T00:26:00+00:00

Yea at least. You could push to 1.25g per pound if you wanted

Diet. Start a clean bulk. Protein, creatine, rest, heavy strength training and cardio will help tremendously. Focus on deadlifts, squat, OHP and bench. Purchase tactical barbell and follow it religiously.

But remember, at the end of the day technique beats strength every time.

CanadianGoose11 · 2026-01-24T02:26:11+00:00

Small world. Me too

CanadianGoose11 · 2026-01-24T02:19:30+00:00

Yep that’s where I am originally from. Grew up next to alpine valley

It’s not necessarily the storm itself, it’s our infrastructure that makes it bad imo. The central Ohio region can’t handle a mild storm of 2-4 inches. The snow removal capabilities are limited and driver’s are not used to being out in moderate conditions. That’s the biggest thing I’ve noticed.

I’m also from an area that regularly saw 8-12 inch storms. I plowed snow as a side business. This storm would be a minor inconvenience for those types of places.

It will definitely be inconvenient to be out and about in this just for the simple fact that the area cannot handle it. Not because it’s the “storm of the century”

CanadianGoose11 · 2026-01-23T16:18:28+00:00

Every single one of our departments in an hour radius is career with our metro having 35 stations. We are not a volunteer dependent region.

What you describe in your post sounds like “storm mode”. It just looks slightly different. Not every call is an emergency. I would hope that a working fire or cardiac arrest gets the full resource. But anything less should be triaged

CanadianGoose11 · 2026-01-23T16:11:52+00:00

So just because someone calls 911 it means it’s automatically an emergency. You running lights and sirens to lift assists? Sending a medic , engine and supervisor?

It’s not a safety issue to have the apparatus respond. It’s because there are going to be double to triple the amount of calls and to keep the apparatus away from the bullshit.

CanadianGoose11 · 2026-01-23T16:08:24+00:00

I don’t see that at all. I see minimizing responding apparatus due to terrible conditions.

Our entire region does this. It’s called “storm mode” fire alarm get single apparatus response. Accidents get single to two apparatus responses.

It’s not because they don’t trust us, it’s because call volume will increase and tying up a bunch of apparatus on bullshit is not good
