New pickup

[oosik]

Thanks coldsteeqlva. Gotta admit - the last new vehicle I bought - 2006 Jeep TJ - had a radio, period. This Taco Wagon is way on the opposite side of that. I DO have the FCA database document - all eight pages. I will use it as a checklist.

oosik, I'm about to have a coronary too, just waiting is killing me! This is one suspenseful delivery.

Yea, Doofy. I'm kind of holed up in the house also. It's just cold enough 24 and with a light breeze to a make it uncomfortable. See how a guy with 18+ years in AK can loose that taste for the cold wx. Brother, that's me. I had trouble with my left shoulder, again, for about 3 weeks. Some type of arthritis. Just feeling better now - cold sure can get to it though. The next bout with this shoulder - they want to ultra sonics or something like that. The Dr's have assured me - JD WILL NOT dissolve the deposits - darn.

So I guess if you had my wx - you would be out in a T-shirt & shorts. I've honestly tried to forget how cold it got in Glennallen. I can't.

Stay warm friend, stay warm.

That heated leather seat will feel good on your aching back.

Ford850 - that's what I'm hoping. It will one of the first "functions" I want to learn how to operate. I've had troubles with my left shoulder ever since my football days in high school. Turning out for college FB didn't help either.

Playing football, it would get a partial dislocation. Go over to the grandstands - grab the railing - lean forward - lunge back with all your force. It would usually pop back in place.

God - I was ignorant in those days.

I learned to remove my heavy coat if I am going to use the heated seat, otherwise the coat insulated me from the heat.

oosik, Heat wave today! +6 Our low thus far for the winter has only been -31 but dang, it was cold! Humidity has been in the high 90% all winter which is very unusual. Brrrrr! Those heated seats do sound good.

I DO have the FCA database document - all eight pages. I will use it as a checklist.

I hope it's more helpful than mine was, as it listed every standard option as well as packages, options or add-ons. Many of them are replaced by uplevel items.

 

[oosik]

My eight page document - FCA database - lists all standard stuff then goes on and lists the upgrades on the last few pages.

I'm afraid your heated seat won't reach your shoulder,
at least the ones in the 1500 only get your lower back.
But enjoy your truck, if they would put the diesel in it I'd be looking.
