BTW taz, I saw a picture of the truck you ask about a while back, looks nice.
Warm up joke:
What's the difference between Delta Burke and a 747?

Thumbs up Gel....hair gel?

The diesel was a second choice but it requires some babying in the wintertime with cold temperatures...having to switch from #2 diesel to #1 (or vise versa) and the risk that you have the wrong type in your tank in case the weather drops suddenly...heard a lot of stories about gelling and didn't want the headaches.
If it had had two fuel tanks it might have been different...
I drove an 18 wheeler for years and theres several products on the market that will prevent the diesel gel propblem. Pro-Flo, Blue Diesel Fuel Treatment (Malco Products makes it), Gen49D just to mention a few. You can find them in any truck stop somewhere around the fuel desk. Not cheap but they work well. I've shut down for the night in temps as low as 8 degrees and had no problem "cranking the cat" the following morning. You have to remember to add it before the temp drops and run the engine for 10 minutes or so to get it mixed throughout the system. Save your butt if you up in the woods hunting and the temp takes a dive.
Happy holiday to you and yours,

here's a good joke...
an 80 yr old man is fishing when a frog jumps over to where he is sitting, says"I'm really an 18 yr old princess and if you kiss me i will turn into my old self and you can have your way with me." The old man puts the frog in his pocket and goes home. There he takes the frog and places it on the kitchen table. "Well, you going to kiss me or what?", the frog asks. "I was going to but at my age I'd rather have a talking frog."

Dubuque, Dubuque, la-la la la la .. (jingle from a canned ham advert, goes to "Shaboom, shaboom")

I lived in Illinois and worked in Davenport back in 98 and 99. I don't miss the 75 miles drive to work every day or crossing the river at the Moline I-74 bridge.
