Money? I ain't got no money. I've got a second generation Ram instead.

If I fall asleep doing my homework I might get out and tighten up the TV cable a bit.
IDK, if I will though.

I WISH!

No, I fall asleep while I am supposed to be doing something and I go outside and do something to wake up.

Besides, it is barely going to break freezing today.

Changed out my leaking radiator, pulled my plugs, and had a look at them... They were a bit ashy, but, aside from that, looked pretty good, so, put 'em back in. Dropped the blower to see if there was a bunch of crud in there... nope, not really, cleaned out a few pine needles.... Burped my cooling system, but, my heat is still really anemic. Truck runs MUCH better though today. But then, it's below freezing... so, not really a big surprise. Wait till it warms up some more again, and THEN see if it still runs good. Then I will declare it 'fixed'.

I did a radiator replacement earlier last year, it has to be one of the easiest things to replace on these trucks

Did you clean them off before you put them back in?

My transmission will "whine" a little in Reverse when it's cold out. Once it warms up a bit she's quiet. So I take the most appropriate action and ignore it
