    Question What did you do to your truck today?

    Decided those little green gauge light rubbers :D were driving me crazy because they were so dim even at night. Carefully removed the pillar and pillar pod and got rid of those darn green things for good. Going with bare bulbs on the pillar. ;tu

    Oil Change Due

    Outstanding. Truck now has 305K. The last 200K were Delo 15W40. I've had about 12 Blackstone UOAs (used oil analysis) over the years and each one was phenomenal for an engine with so many miles. All my trace metal ppms were below universal averages. I got two cases from Costco when it was on sale.

    "Baby, It's COOLD Outside"

    Probably more dangerous than blizzard white out conditions because in snow people slow down. There's one stretch of hwy 99 just north of Bakersfield that's Tule fog ground zero. It's a low point that the thickest fog settles in.

    Question What did you do to your truck today?

    Well seeing that the rest of the country is having frigid weather and here today it is sunny and 68*F ( :tounge I had to rub it in :D ) I drove Ol' Bessie out to the coast then hard on the freeway. You know sometimes you just know your truck is running perfect? Well today was her day. I must say...

    "Baby, It's COOLD Outside"

    Actually I believe he was serious. Us Californians have a very high gel point. :D Driving in winter Tule fog with freezing temps is miserable with black ice, zero visibility and cold and damp weather.

    Which Tire?

    Yup, IMO those are the absolute best tires for the '99+ 7.3s. I have the Michelin XPS Rib on mine. IMO the best summer tire for my '97.

    PLEASE tell me I did NOT cause this!

    That's so common it makes me sick. Happens to me with my mechanic too. Why does Murphy's law work against us when we need it most? :D Don't give up on your 7.3L. Have it towed back to Ford. I know full well the feeling one gets when confidence in your truck is at an all time low. Then, one day...

    Question What did you do to your truck today?

    Since we've got rain I soaped down the exterior getting rid of those pesty vegoil stains. A rain water rinse is so much better than my well water as it does not cause ring spots on the glass. :sweet

    Question What did you do to your truck today?

    Realized how filthy it was inside and out. :eek: Don't drive it much since getting the Mercedes. Decided to drive it into town to charge its batteries and to fill my belly with pizza.

    Question What did you do to your truck today?

    This is the kind of thread that goes on forever. Whether as small as changing a light bulb to reading fault codes to getting new tires to modding your PSD, please keep this thread going. A side benefit for those that post here regularly will be a log of what you've done that you can reference in...
