    Update. It is here, hooked up for someone else. Unacceptable. Will have to get to the bottom of this.

    Got my truck back from repair today. Back in my p.o.s. but at least I'm familiar with it, lol. And the block heater works on it so I can plug it in. Takes less time to get heat in the morning and she cranks right up.

    Pictures just don’t do it justice but here’s from our local Christmas parade this year. Decided to light up our 900 this year, I think it turned out pretty dang good.

    Having an issue on a 2018 Pete 579 that the brakes won’t stay adjusted. What a pain in the ass.

    2010. I like a constant fresh air flow. Easier to get amount I like with a manual vs electric.

    Yep. We were supposed to get some snow but it's 36 and rainy, have gotten .19 inches of rain so far.

    My previous employer started to get electric windows maybe 5 years ago. My favorite part of manual windows is R X R crossings with hazmat in the box. You can't roll down passenger side window to listen for trains:eek:

    Fresh air is a must keeps flowing for alertness. No matter what time of year it was I always had window down to listen for horns,and crunching metal of 4 wheelers I might be rolling over:rofl::rofl:.
    Good morning driver's be safe today.

    Yeah I've got manual windows in my old p.o.s.
    There's times when I wished I could roll down the passenger window.

    Right always had construction site guys go to passenger side. I would motion around to the driver's side.
