    Enjoying the stove, this looks like a bad freakin winter, thinking about grabbing another ton. Anyone else think they may come up short this winter?

    We moved in 67 when I was 13. We'd ride our bikes from where we lived on Chestnut St across town to just over the line to Lunenburg to go to (the now defunct) Whalom Park amusement park ( Canobie Lake Park in Salem, NH is the only thing like that around here now).

    Do they not use salt in MT? That nice jeep would be murdered out east, sadly.

    I baby my 2wd truck. Gets undercoated and lives in the garage when the salt is bad. Let the subaru take the beating.

    LOL this truck was sold out here,I bought it,sideways,from an outfitter,had a steel rack in the front of the bed,with a winch,to pull elk into the bed.There is rust,but,this olden goldie(being a shortbed,high horsepower) should go to a collector.I rerung the engine(years ago) and hauled a camper for years,yet use it several times ayear to haul my wood pellets,as my 1 ton chevy,I never take the camper out,as I have this old monster.

    Get a ThermGuard that you can turn on when it gets cold like this. Cheaper than a busted pipe:

    Remember, I'm a girl. My nice and tight is not nearly as tight as it is for guys (same with lug nuts - I've seen proof).
