As Good as it Gets   by Michael Wright

4/20/2015

 
Picture
A favorite film of mine is "As Good as it Gets".
I have watched it many times.
Why do I like it so much?
Is it Jack Nicholson? Is it the dog, Verdel?

I was reminded of this film again just recently in March and I think this recent situation explains why this film has become so enduring.

"As Good as it Gets" is a film about dysfunction and much of the dysfunction portrayed is avoidable.
 It reminds me of people I know in this crazy mixed up world who's shoes I would not want to wear or share.

I am just a boring guy who likes to do a good job so things go smoothly.
That usually keeps the cray cray at bay.
Or as Jack Nicholson says (in portraying Melvin Udall),
"Sell crazy someplace else, we're all stocked up here".

If this blog post offends you in any way, please call or email us and we will give you a complete list of our competitors with directions.
If on the other hand you can relate to this and you want honest advice (sometimes brutally honest) and workmanship done as if it was on our own truck, then we welcome you as our client and partner.

 Used Truck Accessories-A Cautionary Tale (Part 1)

4/10/2015

 
Just had to share...
Recently we received a phone call from a local body shop owner.
He had purchased a Used ARE LSII fiberglass lid for his Tacoma and wanted to Order Parts.

He had made the purchase out of the back of a flat bed truck assured by the owner that it would fit his vehicle.

Tonneau Covers & The "Dryness Scale"

3/24/2015

 
Why do you want a tonneau for your pickup bed?

Most truck owners would reply, "To keep the bed covered and dry".
But the "Dryness Scale" of many tonneau designs may surprise you.
Some designs are simply better than others in keeping out water and weather.

If this is important to you, read more...

Bed liners for your Pickup - A review

3/23/2015

 
Bed liners for pickup trucks are either "Drop-In" Polyethylene or Spray-on.

Drop-in liners are a very effective way to protect the factory paint and provide shock absorption.
They are economical at $200 installed including a lifetime warranty and the tailgate piece.

Drop-in liners can also be easily removed if/when body work is needed.
They are UV stable and look great for the life of the truck.

Spray-on liners do not protect the factory paint. They are applied by grinding or sanding down your paint and then paint over the prepped metal.
Spray-on liners are not removable and create greater expense if/when body work is needed.
In addition, Spray-on liners do not offer shock absorption and are not UV stable over time.
They are often 2.5 times as costly as Drop-in liners.

Wright's recommends custom fit Penda and Rugged brand Drop-in liners.
Let us know your truck make, model, year and bed size and we will schedule an installation for you.
