Yep it is definately my fault!! I went up to the Missouri Chapter meet on the 3rd.....and it had been pretty all week. (and warm) But the 3rd ...the high that day was 30 degrees with a 25 mph wind. I don't mind chilly....but that wind will go right thru ya! Course as soon as I left Missouri, the temps came right back up.


Why do you think I have an RV instead of trying to tent it...or sleep in the bed of a truck??

Better yet, go trade that thing in and get a 3rd gen or go back in time to a 12 valve!! We have NONE of those currently active here.

I have been looking at them, but I want the room of a Mega cab. My concern is pulling my dad's 5th wheel. I have a B&W turnover ball hitch as well as the companion for pulling a5th wheel. The Mega's have a shorter bed by 3". I don't want to have to buy a different 5th wheel hitch if I get another truck.

Been talking with John from Wylie, Tx. over the last week. We are doing some business and he might come to Sedalia to see what the get together is all about... either late Friday, after work, or Saturday evening (he has plans Satur-day).
He's a DTR member "jpz67" and did not realize we had an active group.
Sorry Robert...another 2nd Gen (02).

Ok guys finally got around to mounting my Water/Meth controller... Dont even think about mentioning the half circle at the top of the pic.... so so Measured everything ten times drilled holes and everything fit perfect!! and I mean perfect.... Go and install it in the truck and holy I have the dang thing facing the wrong direction!!!!

Had to leave the room to collect my thoughts and move away from all of the power tools and cool down.... Sucks so so bad... (at least I hadn't placed the $10 coolingmist sticker yet )

Anyways I'm happy with it... Thanks to RJ for the idea!! Will get some body fill or something for the hole and paint it to hide it some....

Let me know what you guys think... If it has to do with the hole I dont want to hear it!!

BrIan, what's that half circle at the top? Maybe you can make it into a Smily Face of some kind or cover it with a Cooling Mist sticker.

It looks good. Very (almost) neat installation.

What time will you be up on Friday?
