Cold today. Drove in at 2deg. Surprised how well the diesel fired up. I hate I don’t wake up much earlier then I need to leave, it’s always fire up and go. Sucks to drive in that way View attachment 107043
Wait till you’re retired. When I was working I was up at 5:00 and out by 5:30 go to work and have breakfast there , with the boys. Haha Now it takes me an hour to get ready for breakfast. Haha. No worries. Haha

No remote start on that diesel??
Lol. No it’s a 92 manual trans. No frills here. Be expensive and I’d have to leave it in neutral with ebrake on. Not a fan of that in freezing temps.

Oh I see. Is it on a block heater??
Negative. I have a bad habit of not unplugging. I can’t remember crap in the morning except get to work. It’s a really bad day if anything goes wrong...

It really is. My wife is retiring next year after 35 years teaching. I would never make a day as a teacher today. Maybe when I was a kid and teachers could wack you in the back of the head and nothing was said. Haha. Kidding . Haha. Not kidding . But living in Canada I should have a snowmobile. Haha. Also. But some years, like last, no snow.But this year is lots. But the 500 is great 8to 10 months of the year for a retired guy. It will be better next year when she’s done too. Tracks would be great too. Haha.

not that expensive if you put it in your self, older with no security only 50 for a good one. I have done more than I can remember, its better for the turbo too if you leave it on a couple minutes to cool the oil. if its got a tach its pretty easy. a lot of them have timers you can set it to turn on before work and after, a lot better for them to be warm before taking off too

I sure did! That's really neat. When I lived in western MN we had family's truck through town but nothing like that! Thanks for sharing!
I got a picture for you today. This is Elvis. Haha. He comes once and awhile with a bunch. I thought he had a Mohawk but looking closer he looks like someone tried to shoot him with an arrow. Missed him by ....... that much. Haha

Everything is covered in ice this morning. The ducks were on the street the lawn everywhere. How do ducks tell one another where food is. Haha. I went and fed them. Could have worn skates. Could have broken my neck. Haha. Hope it turns to rain soon.

Yeah going to get colder here too. I don’t think we’re supposed to get any snow though. Just turn cold. Yeah I’m not walking the dog this morning. I’d be on my ass. Have a great day Firebird.
