    I know your right. Freeze in the Winter & burn up in the Summer. Between the 4 wheelers & substandard equipment it was a long haul to retirement. I should of been a Gynaecologist like my mom said.:D

    That one had a good AC, I wired it up directly to the starter.
    But you couldn’t turn the truck off without killing it in gear, but it’d blow smoke out of the vents it was so cold.
    Didn’t have an AM/FM radio though..:(

    Did you ever drive one that had Gremlins? Speaking of radios, this one old beast, the radio would start blasting for no reason at all. Some what unnerving in particular situations. I loathed that machine.

    One of our Kodiaks at Baker would do that. Driving down the highway you couldn't hear it, backing into a spot on the frac line and it'd blast. I had it happen twice before I just disconnected it.

    Yeah, truck 404, the air horn would go off sometimes like you yanked cord hard.
    We was all in the shop once, truck went to blowing air horn, someone said I should unhook it, I told them it was unhooked, city horn didn’t work either.
    Got by a level 1 inspection when the guy said hit the horn, I pushed the city horn and said, “Beep Beep.”
    Someone finally beat that horn off with a dead blow

    The tain is coming. Thunder is rolling. Debating on whether to cut the grass. It will surely catch me. No Guts No Glory.Here comes the wind. 60 mph possible. Think I’ll just sit on the porch watch the show.

    My quick nourishing meals were to stick a big spoon in a jar of peanut butter and eat a couple huge gobs of it. Wouldn't be hungry for hours.
