Did nothing to the truck today except run it (I run it twice a week.) This weekend, weather permitting, I will try to get the coolant drained/ block heater installed/ coolant replaced. I might be needing it sooner than later. Temps here at night are supposed to be around 29/30 degrees within a...

Is it a 250 Cummins? Most people say those are good for 4mpg. The 8.3 Cummins like mine are around 8-10mpg. And I seem to remember people saying they were getting 10mpg with the multi trucks.

Seriously? :shock: The Big Lebowski

lol... Love that movie :)

Actually accomplished quite a bit today.. I wired in an outlet between my 2 garage doors, for use with my block heater. I was going to use the one by the door into the house, but then I would need a 20ft longer cord. That was actually kind of fun.. Been a while since I ran conduit and pulled...

I'm curious about picture 1... Why does your truck have 2 slave ports?

Sweet :)

Also picked a case (6 1 gallon bottles) of NAPA brand coolant designed for heavy duty vehicles. Low silicate with sca as was recommended. It's the undiluted stuff, so I will need to pick up some distilled water to mix it. I was very happy that they had it in stock, and in enough quantity to meet...

I also bought some more goodies for my toolbox on an excursion to Harbor Freight (had to go there to buy a cheap heat gun for the shrink tubing.) Picked up a small axe, deadblow hammer, mechanics wire, stainless steel zip ties, plastic zip ties, a cheap utility knife, a tire pressure gauge...

Finally received my H4 ceramic pigtails :naner:Went to NAPA to get the appropriate connectors and shrink tubing, then I went ahead and installed one of them (passenger side.) Even during the day, I could tell there was a significant difference. I'm guessing maybe 25-30% brighter? I left the...

Yeah that's what I did.. Bought mine from a private seller so it already had an Illinois title. No forms or BS for me :)

Yeah I know. I passed the written test for my license a month ago, but I still haven't gone back for the driving portion.. Been working too much.

Finally primed and bedlined the inside of my second toolbox (the one under the passenger side door.) Once I get some type of rubber mat in there I can finish putting all of my tools in the truck. I was amazed at the amount of stuff I was able to fit in the smaller toolbox mounted behind the...

Congrats! :)

lol

I did... NOTHING to my 5 ton today :sad: Been working 13 or 14 hours every day, and I don't feel like doing anything by the time I get home. However, I did receive my new Hella lenses and Hella H4 bulbs today 8) Can't wait to get them installed. Just waiting for the ceramic-ended wiring...

Ha. Me too. I have a model railroad in my basement:-D8) Lol.. Somehow we went from 5 tons to HF cupholders to railroad stuff.. :derailed:

He has a fifth wheel on the back behind the bed.

lol.. Sweet cap ;) I feel your pain dude. We don't have rain here, but it is starting to get colder outside.. Sunday is my only day off, and I didn't get anything done because it was cold out. Nothing makes me less motivated to work outside than the cold..
