You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.

Really looking good Gene. I wish I had that pipe bender. Would have helped me as I had to put similar bends in mine too. I used the old method, two hands and a knee.

Every time they mention snow I do something else to it. The first snow mention got the cab, then they mentioned snow today and it got front tires. If they mention snow again tomorrow and it looks possible this weekend it will get rear filled rear tires, weights, chains, and the weight rack on the back. Then if it really looks like some snow this weekend it will get the blower put on and be ready lol. :rolling
