One of the little fuses down under the dash is radio power......can't remember which one, but I think it's marked as radio.

Our trucks have a radio??? OK, I know they do but I have not really used mine since the exhaust install. Radio fuse should be listed in the owners manual. I believe it's also labelled on the decal on the removable access panel. Not sure why the clock works and radio doesn't, that doesn't sound right.

started working after the truck warmed up? started the truck let it warm up to operating temp and the radio was working when i got in. any idea why it would not play untill it warmed up??

going to order the exhaust next week. not sure when i will have time to put it in. working on my roof so the snow dose not fill up the deck and drop in front of the door. depending on the storm could take meup to four hour to clean it all up. then to hawaii home in time for the snow to start falling.

I've discovered that in cold weather my radio screwts up only when the heat/ac switch is in the on position. Next time you do a cold start first time for the day turn off the heat switch first.
