Anyway, I went to lunch with someone today and so I got to ride shotgun. As we pulled into the drive coming back it almost looked like my lights were on. Hmmmm....I walked up to the truck and peering through the window, indeed, Yes, my lights were on. Seems I had managed to turned the headlights off but didn't get it pushed down quite enough to turn the running lights off...(sound effects)...wah..wah wah... Jumped in the truck and attempted to start her up......as she spoke back to my in clicks and electrical sputters, I determined that unless a bit of good luck would come my way, I was walking the 18 miles home at the end of the day.
I stumbled around in the barn for a little bit and came upon my goal!! A CHARGER!! I went back out to the truck popped the hood and set the charger up. I know I have an extension cord in my truck almost Always so I went back in the truck to dig out the cord. Got, hooked everything up. Ran the cord down under the fence rail, through the poison ivy and into the building and pulled it in. I let it charge for about 20 mins and went back out and tried to start her up. She fired right up for me!! I put everything away and came back in.
I left her running and I am going to go back out and in a little bit to shut it off.
I love my truck! So what if all the plastic parts are being held on with duct tape! So what is she has over 300,000 miles in her! So what if the drivers side mirror won't stay in place! So what if the tailgate won't stay shut anymore (who needs a tailgate)!! I LOVE my truck!!!
I'm buying some lottery tickets tonight!!

Cool truck, nice color.
