You know, Franklin, being a southern boy who will only visit the frigid north in the warmth of Summer, this is all news to me. I assumed, like a Pollyanna, that any industry that can come up with cruise control and power brakes would have, by now, come to grips with radiators and extreme cold driving conditions. If nothing else, I think they would include a formfitting piece of cardboard in the truck by the spare tire.
Well, they might, and I haven't noticed it yet in the trunk.
I got this vehicle on November 17; there's a lot of things I haven't noticed yet.
This reminds me of the previous vehicle, which I had gotten from the local John C. Calhoun--it was several months before I opened the trunk, only to find a virtual arsenal of firearms in it.
Of course, these were ruined firearms (bent barrels, broken stock, rusted, whatnot), because the previous owner used to use, for example, rifles as levers to pry something open. There were nine busted, or partial, firearms in the trunk, nothing of any value, so on the recommendation of the sheriff, I tossed them.
