Yep. Autopatch. I've been told it's still around on some repeaters, but it's not used much any more (for obvious reasons). Back in the day, though, it was pretty handy. We used a poor-man's CB version where someone with a base station and a speakerphone would be a manual phone-patcher for a guy in his car. (It also worked the other way, where someone who had moved out of state could call and be able to talk to the local gang on air.)

Hmmmm.... When the truck is no longer a DD, Lightning swap, Coyote, or V10?

Man that Coyote swap is lots of work. Cool as hell. First one I've seen attempted in a gen 10. Patrick is most definitely the man for the job. Much more to it vs an L or V10 swap.

Very cool project he has in the works there.

Cool! Just got a text that my harmonic balancer should arrive today! Clutch and flywheel will be here tomorrow or Friday. I ordered the correct pickup tube yesterday too.

Don't know why, but this is sexy to me, lol.

Since the two main canyons aren't too far from being closed for winter, I took a little ride up one last night. In the top pic, you can see it was snowing like crazy..... so much that you can barely see the mountain range outline. Really thought I'd wake up to sleet or snow, but it was just warm enough to remain rain. It is REALLY coming down. Might have white stuff on the ground soon.
