I'm posting this mostly for JT but thought you all might enjoy this. Did the preflight on the 818 today as pickup is a go for wed. Has been sitting a month or so according to the site guy but who really knows if they are telling the truth. Tossed in 2 new NAPA batts at 810 CCA each and check out what happened on the first try.

FYI, none of the other trucks in the vid are for sale anytime soon :-( Other than some rust in the door sills its in pretty damn nice shape. Runs like a champ.

Well, the preflight put me behind a bit today. Ran out of time to get to the A1. Going to have to run out there real early on wed so that i can get that plow loaded and not screw up our timeline too much.
