    ARE cap, wade inchannel vent visors, weathertec floor mats, ranch hand grill guard, tuffy security boxes in bed, lockable tailgate handle. Still have stuff that needs to be installed and still have stuff ordered lol.
    problem with that is when he decides to sell his house, its very expensive to have all the gravel n dirt cleaned because dep gets involved and he can actually get a hefty fine for that because he is contaminating the earth its illegal to dump oil in the dirt from what i believe.

    Yes it has to be hauled any distance in a insulated tank the kind that have the fittings to run steam around the tank to keep it up to temperature.

    It needs to be preheated to burn in those Huge Ship engines !!

    Back when I was a Boiler Tech in the Navy, the old destroyer I was used "Bunker C" oil, and it had to be substantially heated up to be able to be forced through the spray nozzles in the firebox of the boiler to burn. If I remember correctly from almost 45 years ago, this stuff kinda resembled black Elmer's Glue in consistency when cold.

    #6 is a little bit more fluid but real hard to tell the difference by just looking.

    Is this part of the discussion? I'm pretty sure he wasn't asking for advice or a personality evaluation.

    In a couple of generations, his triangular headed nephews will appreciate that his truck has no rust.

    I'm smelling a troll thread. Do you also heat the inside of your home with a charcoal barbecue?

    Aren't they using magnesium chloride or calcium chloride when they do a dust suppression treatment on gravel roads these days?

    Calcium chloride where I used to live and it was the worst stuff in the world for making your truck rust. Coats your rig and takes scrubbing to get off for you can't just spray off under your truck to clean it off. That shit stays caked on and ruins your truck.
