What did you do to your truck today?

So far trying to figure out why my AC isn't working. Jumped the blower it still works, but when I turn the truck on it gets no power. The spot for the fuse looks like It caught fire and someone put an inline fuse on it at one time but that wire is gone and I can't for the life of me figure out where it went.

After my fire last Friday I went to the wreckers and pulled a new-to-me alternator and all the wiring for $20, sure beats the $200 rebuild. Drove it all week and it hasn't caught fire yet, think I might pick up a little fire extinguisher to put in the tool box just incase.

Put a license plate on it - registered/titled my new (?) 92 Flare Side - paid the princely sum of $2750 for the truck - and FIVE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY AMERICAN DOLLRS for a few bits of paper and a bent plate. This truck ownership lark is new to me - better be worth it!

I had duals turning out behind both rear tires and i use my truck as a truck so the chrome tips were getting the **** beat out of them so I cut the pipes where the dumped over the rear axle and the slapped the tips back on, and just ordered some coil spacers.
Maybe to many trucks?
Picked up another F250 today for $200.
1992 Ford F250 4x4 351W E4OD D50TTB Steerling 10.25 full floater 4.10LS rear regular cab long bed for $200. The engine might be seized and the whole right side is shot. Came with the right headlight and fender to fix that and the bed I have on another truck which is a flatbed. The cab part not sure what I am going to do probably just cut it out and weld in a new piece. It was side swept by a train at the local papermill that shut down. The truck has no mechanical issues other then the engine. Figured at $200 that wasn't half bad.
So now I have:
1988 F150 4x4 302 C6
1989 F250 4x4 351 ZF5
1989 F350 2wd 460 ZF5
1991 F250 4x4 460 E4OD
1992 F250 4x4 351 E4OD.
That is just of these gen trucks. LOL
