It's only because you have finally owned a vehicle long enough to break it in. 
I've got just over 120k on mine... at the rate I'm going now its going to take me about 15 more years to hit 150k.

I've owned my Tacoma for 10 years this past October and am over 165k.

I've had mine almost 14 years (Jan will be 14) but in the past 18 months I have only put 800 miles on it... maybe! I try to get it out once a month now for a trip to the corner store or just 5-10 miles. Before last Mar I would try to drive it to work at least once or twice a month (goal was weekly.. didn't happen). Now I don't drive anything anywhere... hell the SuperDuty has only done maybe 1200 miles since last March (sitting at 10972 miles). My FordPass app which monitors when I need an oil change and crap like that said that in April (5 months from now) when I am due again it estimates it will be 1000 more miles. LOL

Put the airbags on the Tundra. I left the existing leaf packs and shocks because I have other things to spend money on. The ride is greatly improved, although a little more bouncy but it’s a truck and I don’t care. Happy I went this route instead of HD replacement leaf packs. I put the air chucks in the rear bumper and inflated them to either 10 or 15psi, depending on which gauge you want to believe.

I have to say, BMW designed a short witing harness for the reister pack so it was very easy just to replace the harness when replacing the resistor pack. Did you increase the gauge of the wires?

Finally decided to install the speakers that I've had sitting around for a few years. Not that it's going to make any difference with the stock head unit but I was bored and tired of seeing them on the shelf. Pulled the door panel off and they were the wrong size (don't even know what vehicle I ordered them for) so I ordered some adapters off of Amazon and I'll install them on Wednesday. Should have ordered some Dynamat to put in the doors as well but I just don't really care anymore. All the noise helps me stay awake when I'm driving to work at 4:30 in the morning . Have a few other projects to keep me busy on the truck until then.

Noico for the win.
Or Silless for even cheaper. I think I'm going to give that stuff a try in the black and whatever is leftover will go up near the firewall. The black won't stick out as much as the shiney aluminum if some isn't covered by the carpet.

Got the heavy Chevy running today, so that was epic.

Same issue from our March Death Valley trip?
