Made it

We got here on the 20th and the both the truck and TC are in good operating condition now after a 2 year nap. Red is REALLY chalky, but it has always been hard to keep shiny, the paint really sucks. There is some ceiling damage that I knew about and I need to repaint the TC. I must have used the wrong paint when I repainted it the last time, cause now it has cracks everywhere and needs to be redone, maybe from the -19* winter nights. We are using it and all systems are working fine though. Red goes in on Monday for an oil change and a new Tstat.

We are surrounded by mountains that still have some snow on them, I'll see if I can get a pic loaded, and Red just never warms up.....
