The pacific northwest is a fairly snowy place at the moment. It looks like you got hit a little harder up there than in my area.
Fun times!

That was 3/4 the way up Cypress Mtn. Thankfully, there is no snow in town. I just enjoy going for a drive in the snow every once in a while.

These are great trucks to drive!



Meanwhile, I am slowly adding the bits to run electric trailer brakes and a Class III receiver for trailer hitch ball height adjustability.

One of my Morimoto fogs was flickering. After I went under to look, I found one of the prongs was completely corroded apart. Part of the prong is stuck in the female end. Cut both male and female ends off & hardwired for now using butt-end shrink wrap connectors. I’ll order a new female and put the stock connectors back on when it gets warm.

Sweet! My buddy just sold his 97' with the 5.4 a few months ago. He inherited it from his dad with 100k miles and sold it with 265k miles. He did have to replace the transmission at 150k, but the motor was original and solid!

Went for a quick after-work sled-skiing outing...and three out of four slednecks at the trailhead prefer Ford.



Then I was quite happy to manage to get the sled trailer back into its proper place in the driveway when I got home (well, mostly, the *** end is overhanging the property line, but I don't think the neighbors care)...until I unhitched it and gravity reminded me that the left side wheel being up on a snowbank was going to be problematic. Oops. Even after the wheel slid forward, it was still sufficiently out of the way to get the truck in the driveway between the trailer and my roommate's truck, so I'm considering it a win.

We did the window tint thing this morning. Looks a bit more badass, eh?
More to come...
