    No but it is a tax write off, or worst case looks good on the back of wrecker

    Lookin cool ain’t cheap, and lookin cheap ain’t cool

    I try to do mine once a week then during the nice months polish a wheel here and a box there, but I swear the best thing I did was repaint the tanks on this truck, no more polishing

    I actually took a few hours today to put the truck up on blocks to get underneath it to get the winter crud off

    The NE sucks for salt/brine and so does the line at the Beacon on a sunny day screw that. Kirkwood does a decent job..........if your a repeat customer. The do it yourself in dunmore pa usually never has a line. Wheels don't look too bad for not getting a rub all winter
