I don't know about a joke Wade, I've never heard of anyone stealing one with it locked. Of course it only works when you lock it.

Next week he won't have to leave the state for snowmobiling. This must have been his plan all along. LOL

Miles had some help, I washed mine as well. I love snow, and am really looking forward to it!

Tom don't get me wrong, I love snow and driving in it. We actually go north looking for snow when CT is snowless. I washed my truck Friday. Just having a little fun with Miles.

I finally washed the salt off my truck. It was white before. That must be what did it.

The weather this morning said the next storm will start between 2-4AM tomorrow and that we can expect upwards of 7" by 7AM. That's a lot of snow real fast. Hopefully businesses are smart and close up shop tomorrow leaving the roads significantly safer.

Happy storm II eve everyone!! Got 2 or 3 yesturday. I'm on the line up here, so I could get 3"-12" tomorrow

At least the Sunday storm will be messured in feet

Tom I may have overstated the OEM tailgate lock as being a "joke", but I do know that they will keep the honest man from stealing. Nothing a puller cant remove in about four seconds though. Just sayin.

You can come borrow mine if you want. No sidewalks at the new house. You just can't have it forever since its older than I am and is way more reliable.

Depending on what happens this weekend I might take you up on that.

Since the FTE build thread doesn't get updated and I'm not sure if you're on PSA...

Yeah, I am a member over there so I get the updates, but I essentially never post. If you decide to borrow it just shoot me a text.
