    You can get a polish kit at the TA for 75 bucks, just saw it today.

    I always thought it funny that guys would come up to my truck and ask if i wanted my wheels and tanks polished.
    The sad part was, i had full skirting which covered the tanks completely and white painted steel wheels.
    You'd think they would have noticed that before knocking on my door. Just shook my head and ignored them.

    Don't know him. I hear lots of people saying Danny's is bunk though.

    We had Danny's do all of ours for the last couple of years, but I wasn't real happy with the last truck that got done, hoping it was an anomaly?

    Something changed over there most definitely.
    It's not even the same.

    I hate to base an opinion off of one truck, guess we will see how the next one turns out?

    I remember when trucks came out of there and everyone went WOW, and it was also very reasonable.
    Now it's just a fleece joint in every aspect.
