My Trucks Wash Day

Part 1..

got up at 10 this morning to give a truck a bath... its 6 now that im done... im sore in places i never thought possible could hurt.. but least it looks clean again...

started the day with ripping the liner outta the bed... only to find this hiding under neath...


apparently when the put the liner in they decided cleaning the bed out wasnt important...



and the reason why that liners went back in too...




even after i blew it all out with the leaf blower it still looked like crap...



all the crap that would blow out...




how it looked after i blasted it with the hose...

cant remember how many pics per post it lets ya do... so be patient please...
