    Now you've got me wondering how I could encourage a fox to build a den under my back porch. How awesome would that be? I've seen one in the yard, so they're here anyway.

    Just dropped my truck off at the dealer for frame inspection.
    They said they're skipping the inspection part and going straight into the spraying process. Wasn't expecting that.
    They said it should be ready tomorrow afternoon.

    They gave me a new Highlander for a loaner.
    That thing has more bells and whistles than I've ever seen.
    Not even going to try to figure them out for a day, but I did figure out the moonroof.

    I did have to ask one of the mechanics how it starts, as I'm a Luddite who never drove a car with no key and a push button. :anonymous:

    Went to get the truck today. Looking under to see his work & realized the p.s. cooler thingy is rusty & has a damp spot.
    Told him to keep the truck, replace that. and the belts, & lube/work the p-brake he said was sticking. Maybe one of the pulleys is loose too, so....
    and for fun, new clutch fluid cause it looks dirtyish. (Am I the only person that changes fluid early if it looks dirty?) The cost of letting a truck sit.

    What @Bridge4 said, but seriously any motor your not going to use for a long period of time should be delt with the same way.
    Saws, weed wacker, leaf blower, etc.
