Hmmmmmm. Never thought of that before. Great idea, especially for the 1,200 square foot palace your heating

It is a large cabin (palace). Electric seats and electric heat make a huge difference. I read the thermometer a little late. Wife says it was 12 degrees - a new record for Montpeculiar.

Morning woodchucks and fellow imposters. Was a balmy 23* here near the large pond this morning and I had to scrap the frost off the inside of the window along with the outside. Man was that stuff thick.

Takes my escort a while. But that has always been a little cold blooded since I have owned it

Your tall enough, you just need one of those telescoping ones. Or a shop broom for the big snows do that a number of times during the winter, but my rigs are 12+ years old so not too worried about paint scratches

Good afternoon Neil. On the inside, must have been high humidity there.

You'd think I was tall enough at 6'1" but the 350 is taller. I have a telescoping scraper but I can't really get enough pressure to scrape the really hard stuff off the windshield until the defroster softens it up. The good news is the electric heater puts heat on the windshield within a minute or two. Glad I paid a few extra bucks for that feature. Handy here in VT, especially 'cause the diesel is definitely cold blooded.
