I just keep my truck plugged in.

Too embarrassed to write Embarrass, MN?

Glad to share the chill with you. Sure nice to be above zero this morning.

I know one thing. If my neighbor wakes me up one more time trying to crank that stupid powerjoke, were going to have words! Sounds like he's molesting a sewing machine out there.

Naw, John. The reason I didn't type Embarrass is that most people around here don't have a clue where it is. I'm just glad the temps are now above zero.

No, the PSD was outside all night...I dont talk bad about Ford because i've had pretty good experiances with em...I just like my truck better Our Ford is pretty good all around, but they're not my thing, especially the 6.0. The 7.3 i liked!

mntom,
I grew up up there in Duluth and played hockey outside in -20 many nites. Does it ever get above freezing there?
I recall a saying ..something about being Embarassed....meant driving thru your place at -40 or better haha. When they say "keep a stiff upper lip" it ain't from will power up there it "cause it's frozen. haha LOL

I love this place.

Yes, lots of deer and moose, but no antelope.

"Da range" is a local expression for folks that live in the Minnesota Iron (mine) Range. Embarrass, MN is one of those places. It made the national weather news.
