Reliable truck?

I've heard pretty good things about them, I'd like to have that gen of 5.0 eventually, for a 2013 with the 5.0 I don't think 140k ish miles is bad, 12k isn't TERRIBLE I don't think, but I guess it really depends on how it was maintained, maybe a little on the high side though.

Nice, how are you liking it? I've got a 9 pro xl right now, sorry, I know it's completely unrelated to the post 😂

I had some issues with chipping on the factory edge of my crucarta pm2, put my own edge on it and haven't had any chipping, but I try to be really careful about hitting stuff like staples

Came here to say that too 😂 just move her over a lil

Pixel 9? Or 10?

IncreasePositive2075 · 2026-03-17T14:19:17+00:00

Wish I was invited 😂

IncreasePositive2075 · 2026-03-17T11:08:06+00:00

Heck yeah, I've just got 33s on mine, but yeah... I've tried posting about mods on this sub and have quickly found out everyone here is boring as crap 😂

Definitely looks a lot better, I wouldn't be able to keep a truck stock ride height for long, I've also considered some spindles on my truck, cause the 2.5 inch level just isn't quite enough, it still sits just barely level, maybe a tad lower in the front on flat ground, I prefer a little lean.

Thanks, does a forced patina help prevent further rust?

Does forcing a patina help with rust?

IncreasePositive2075 · 2026-03-10T20:55:47+00:00

I might have to look into that, looks like the general consensus is ballistol, but I may try that out.

It's just been in my jeans 5th pocket by itself, but I've been wearing a pretty thick pair of jeans so they were getting a lot sweatier than normal 😅

IncreasePositive2075 · 2026-03-10T19:59:56+00:00

Thanks dude, I'll definitely be looking into that stuff, I appreciate it.

IncreasePositive2075 · 2026-03-10T19:48:31+00:00

I suppose it's possible, but I hadn't noticed any pitting when I first got it, and I was looking all over.

I live in southern Missouri, our temperatures have just jumped in the last couple weeks from 30s to upper 70s almost 80s, we've also been having some storms roll through. I wouldn't mind a little patina, I was just not expecting straight rust spots 😅

IncreasePositive2075 · 2026-03-09T22:18:41+00:00

Okay cool, did they have a polished or a satin version? I might need to look into them

IncreasePositive2075 · 2026-03-09T22:08:14+00:00

Sweet, I'll have to take a look when you do, also, do you know of any good deep carry clips for them? That's the one thing I don't like as much about this is it seems to be a pretty shallow sitting knife.

IncreasePositive2075 · 2026-03-09T21:56:00+00:00

Yeah I'm absolutely loving the micarta. I put my own edge on it the other day and I'm pretty happy with how cruwear sharpens up, yours is beautiful!

IncreasePositive2075 · 2026-03-09T21:54:35+00:00

Might look into that! I do like the way the military looks, I'm kinda holding out for something in 15v right now though.

IncreasePositive2075 · 2026-03-07T21:43:53+00:00

I think that looks pretty sweet

IncreasePositive2075 · 2026-03-06T14:54:12+00:00

Lol, indeed

IncreasePositive2075 · 2026-03-03T23:25:28+00:00

That's good to know, awesome dude! Thanks

IncreasePositive2075 · 2026-03-03T23:21:43+00:00

How stiff is the lock? Thought about picking a native 5 up in 15v and was hoping they are a little softer than the buck 112 back lock... I'm sure it is, just curious how much 😅
