Bill, we used to get HAMMERED with cold fronts when I lived in Tallahassee. One January we had three weeks straight waking up at under 20*!!! Those fronts that roll down the east half of USA end up right there! Pensacola oughtta be tempered by the Gulf, but I bet they still get some of that cold weather....

Happy New Year, everyone!

Haven't logged on in a long time...things at work are busy & when I get home I don't want to look at another computer.

For kicks, the kiddo and I took the truck to the scales yesterday. With us, and a little bit of assorted stuff in the cab, it weighed in at 7,020#.

I've had an interesting few weeks learning about commercial motor vehicles, inter- and intra-state travel, and USDOT numbers. All of which is enough to convince me that a 3/4 ton truck would do the job and have much less hassle, should there be a next truck in my future.

If you are hauling interstate commerce you will need DOT numbers. And what we do out here would kill any 3/4 ton pick up truck!!
