Roy, Tell those Doc's to stop experimenting on you.
Spent two days riding in Southern Utah. Watch the digital read out in the trcul drop to 2° on the drive down, But we were mid 40's for most of our riding.
Even got a little red in my checks from too much sun.
Photos to prove it happened.
Great post Doug, all valid points, the RV show sounds great,
I really think Eric needs a diesel, he just doesn't know it yet cus he never owned one,
I think his wife thinks like my wife, they don't like the old diesel truck smell,
then after a while my wife didn't want me to STINK......
new diesel trucks dont stink anymore
well this is the 10th snow day & no school buses ...... freezing rain
It is about 2130 hours in the Arctic Montana......
-13°F ......-29°F Windchill
-25°C ......-34°C Windchill
I am really Thankful to all you very fine friends....... I don't want to get too cushy, but, ya know, you folks are very kind and I need some cheering up....
I do believe the summary is....... Messed up disk is causing pain in right leg, knee, thigh and hip.
More blockage in the leg arteries are causing a bunch of pain and making it hard to walk.
GOOD News...... During one of the blizzards a week ago, Lynn stole my truck to drive to Belt Schools ..... Came home and said the truck needs New Ice & Snow tires.......!!!! NOW !!!. She wants Ice & Snow winter tires on all six wheels.........
Come summer we will put on a new set of summer tires that will also work in the grass and mud.
GoodYear Ice & Snow ordered in at Sam's Club.
Bionic Knee Tim and I will have some "war" stories to tell at the G2G this summer........
I am going to drown in the shower and try to go to bed........

Straighten up and fly right Roy, you had us worried about the ol crustacean!
At 4:30 this morning it was 9°F it's just above 7°F now at 7am local time. It snowed and the wind blew all day yesterday. Maria said in places there is only a couple inches and in others about three feet.
Jon, Thanks for the riding pics, it sure is beautiful there!
Roy, I hope they get it figured out soon what's going on!
Hey Darren !
Snow looks great, we had a decent amount for Iowa, then we had 2 or 3 days in the 50's
Enjoy your winter and thanks for catching us up on things

I'm guessing vacuum pump if it's toward the front of the engine.
Thanks Chad, never thought of that.
Yes, already resealed LOL. Same reason I never need to change my coolant. I get a rad or a turbo long before the coolant wears out.

Good to see you well enough to jump back on here Roy. Hopefully the progress continues. Get well bud!
Do you still have the factory BFGoodroch rugged trails on it Roy? They are awful in the snow. My truck used to be absolutely useless in 2wd with any snow on the roads. Did ok in 4wd with all the weight on the front axle. I finally got a chance to try the new Cooper AT3 LTs in the snow and it's a different truck. It will actually go quite well in 2wd now, but I've got nothing to prove so I still use 4wd when the roads are covered. You also have me beat by quite a bit in weight if your aux tank is full too.
When I bought my truck I bought a spare set of wheels from a wrecking yard and a set of Cooper discoverer mud and snow tires. They work extremely well in the snow and ice.
Happy Sunday guys...
We went to Costco yesterday and I bought a wireless back up camera for my sled trailer. It very portable. Monitor plugs into the cigarette lighter in the truck. Camera is in a license plate surround on the trailer. It needs to be charged up initially, then there is a solar back up to charge the camera. I have no idea how long it will last on the solar trickle charge. Likely depends on usage and sun shine. It took minutes to install and works excellent! I think it was $120 at Costco. Turn it on when you want. Forward, reverse, truck on or off.
