Also, I am due for a new car soon, and by 'I am due,' I mean my wife will be getting her own car soon. But if I play my cards right... (long tangent of random words coming up) maybe, I don't know, possibly could potentially see if I can work it in my favor to slightly convince her for a vehicle I could tow with, but at the same time get her something she likes and wants... lol.

I did go to visit to see if I can test drive the Ranger Raptor, which does have a decent towing package of 7500 lbs... and much cheaper than the Toyotas even with the markup... Although realistically, why would I not consider a 25' GX550 Prem+ w/the 9k towing rating...?? (probably cause of the mark up)

Anyways, I do have a shop where I can store a trailer, and my friend has an enclosed one he has offered to let me borrow as long as I have a vehicle to tow it.

Also, how the heck do you drive that massive tank of a truck around OC? I feel the parking lots are small.
i don't dd the f250, i daily a '19 chevy bolt. its a boring, cheap, forgettable, but very practical daily driver.
my wife is probably going to get the new GX. once she does, i'll consider selling the f250... kinda depends. if the gx feels overwhelmed, i'll just keep the truck. although i don't use it much, i really like it when i do.

Kind of trip for sure! I’m already having second thoughts about selling it 😂

I don’t know why this thought hasn’t occurred to me yet, but is there any hope for taking out the rear quarter glass and rear window without breaking it?
If it’s just gunna break I might as well bash it with a hammer to remove it.

open your door and literally pull the trim to the front of your car and it will unlock and slide off. then just remove the rest of the trim that goes from the back of the rear quarter and over to the roof to the front, it's all one long piece...just pull on it.

once you get the trim off you can literally take a razer and scrape the glue off the back of the rear window and take it off.
