You two guys, (as well as Kris, Jacob, and Nick) give all us "old fogeys" hope for your generation.
Thanks man I still dont have much hope for my generation..most of my employees are around my age or a little younger and its scary when they have never swept a floor before, even better some have never even seen a mop...
But their work ethic is GREAT

You already have on in the truck. look behind your driverside tow hook there will be a plug, might be hard to find at first.

If you dont already have one already you can probably pick one up on ebay for less than 100 bucks.

If you have a orange cord coming out of yor engine above your oil filter then its there. Trust me is most likely there, It took me forever in 10* weather but it was there. Try reaching around in there and feeling for it. might not even be able to see it.

Just in case you cant read it, that thermometer says minus 3.
