What grade of oil in your Deere, also do you have an oil pan heater or just a block heater Sherm? If it`s outside on a day like today you may need both.
My Deere started so we`re off for a quick but very cold trip to town.

Gerry - That is a beautiful truck! It reminds me of a truck out by where Curtis and my in-laws live, its a mid to late 70s crew cab short bed Ford. I haven't taken a close look at that crew cab, mainly because its usually in the owners driveway when I see it, but I would love to have an old crew cab Ford truck.

Curtis - have you seen that crew cab I'm talking about? Its on garven road before the 206 turn off headed east from lagimodiere?

Are you already for Christmas Clint?
Get well soon Grant, like Gerry says, have a good hot soak plus a shot of rum.
Hopefully by now Curtis`s truck and Sherm`s tractor are running.
Have a good day guys, keep warm, by tonight it should be warmer here.
Haven't tried it again, just trickle charging. With warm weather and snow coming, i'll wait till tomorrow to retry it.

That's a wicked truck. I love the old 78/79 body style. Haven't searched but she look slike a 78 to me. 78.5/79's had square headlights.

Can't say i've noticed it to be honest. Not a usual route home for me. But I have seen a few around built to the 9's like it.
