My CUCV finally made it to Ft. Carson I have been working on getting my truck shipped since Jan 06 it shipped on feb 11 And the driver wouldn't come on post and I had to pull truck off the car hauler my self watching this dumb drivers hand signals, I didn't know right and left were so hard. I'm just glad its here.

It's interesting to see how much altitude affects my engine and cold starts are a new experience being from FL.
I got around to putting new glowplugs in or rather my battlebuddy did, and She bought them for me Mac is a 91B and does all the work on my truck and her car now so I watch and teach. Its pretty cool. She is the only other person who will ever be allowed to drive my truck ever.

I am going to assume the battery cables were disconnected since it was being used as shelf to hold tools. If not a sparking good time is going to happen. Only did it once myself many years ago. Never again.
