    Just my two cents worth. Personally I think the truck is beautiful. It’s making you a good living and that’s all that counts. I know a logging crew that ran the long full fenders on all their trucks. They liked them, but the did tend to break up a bit. I don’t think the individual ones would work very well for your application. I’d try something to protect the back window I think.

    So, I did buy a set of half fenders to give that a shot but I won't have the time to get them on before I need to be running again on Monday... Sick kids and other family stuff... I thought long and hard about something to at least protect the windows for now and this is what I came up with. A couple of sheets of the thickest plexiglass Menards had, my table saw/reciprocating saw, and some nylon Velcro. I elected to try the Velcro instead of double sided tape so that they're removable if I need to wash the windows. The plexiglass has a little flex to it but the Velcro spaced it out enough that it doesn't seem to contact the glass. I think I'll get some black tape to "frame" the plexiglass so you don't see the Velcro or at least it won't clash so bad. Had to take the truck about 15 miles to the tire shop this morning and back again and nothing seemed to move. I guess time will tell how effective my homemade guards will be. 20260102_120730.jpg
