The Most Common “I Wish I Had Bought This Sooner” Items

[electruck4x4]

We get this message a lot:

“I should’ve grabbed this earlier.”

It’s rarely a flashy mod.

It’s usually:

• Lift protection
• Tire repair tools
• A more stable jack
• Better daily-use protection

The stuff that quietly removes friction from ownership.

From what we’ve seen, the best purchases are preventative.

What’s something you waited too long to get?

The crossbars , my nephew suggested it, I didn’t care but it makes the truck look better. I’ve used them here and there so they been handy.

Would it be fair to list the R1T itself? Honestly, I wish I'd bought this truck even sooner than I did - I love it!

Lift protection? Do you mean the lift pucks?
Daily-use protection? PPF?

Sorry. Yes, "lift tooling", vs removing the plastics or using the factory plastic jack adapter.

And yes, protection from the kind of wear you see day to day. That could be PPF, a door sill plate, etc.

I am embarrassed to admit that it took me a couple of years to install a second holster for my Level 2 charger right next to my charge port. It used to take about two minutes to unwind and another two minutes to roll up the cable to store it back by the charger. Now I grab the cable and insert it in about 10 seconds.

I already thought it was much easier to charge at home than to stop at Costco and wait in the gasoline queue. Now it is a breeze! And all that electricity is covered by our Solar Array!

I wish that I had bought the shade for the ceiling glass sooner. With lots of time in the desert, it easily drops the inside temperature by 20 F and improves the efficiency of the air conditioner
