    Ole Snackbar needs to find a open deck job. No micromanage, no turdliner either. Someone that will let him stay out a month or longer like he prefers. Hard to find with another mega but he can hope anyway.

    One of those days where it’s not hot hot, but not comfortable in the truck because it won’t start. Turned on my fan and it instantly kicks on…(big box fan from Walmart)

    That's right...I lose track of who owns who anymore. It use to be "Us-Arnold-Total-Abilene-Xpress". Now it's S-A-AAAC-K(Swift-Abilene-AAA Cooper-Knight)

    I've been in the overcast zone for days. Day before yesterday I was in and out of rain, sometimes heavy. Yesterday I woke up to 35° and sleet which turned into gloomy gray overcast blahhh. Last night it was just cool enough to need a little bunk heat, but these units aren't designed to produce just a little heat. One degree too high and it roasts you out, one degree too low and it stops producing heat until it's 5-10 degrees colder than where you have it set. I can't wait until spring...but dread summer.

    They do a little heat just fine when maintained. They build up carbon and are only able to force heat. The desired temp is monitored but a gunked up unit isn’t able to maintain the desired temp. Most companies won’t mess with them, mine included. I spent $50 bucks on a few parts and cleaned my unit myself. Took about 10 minutes.
