Didn't get to finish my post and won't be able to finish this one either cause of all sorts of meetings today BUT

There's a list on this website somewhere of what to take when picking up a vehicle. I think that is mainly focused on 2.5/5 tons but will be useful. Best thing to do is take someone with you that can provide assistance including slaving it off and/or flat towing. I was lucky, mine started right up with a jump and some ether and I drove it up the loading ramp and into the back of the truck. From what others told me at the show I was very very lucky.

Where are you getting your truck from?

Off to my Tuesday morning beatings---I hate Tuesdays.

Ether in a glow plug engine is never a good idea...
