List.

Changed the oil. All 15qts of it.
Took front centercaps off and tested manual hubs (worked great)
Found out the factory keypad code for the doors and that the battery on the keypad is probably dead
Found out the ac was very overcharged and had it drained and recharged so it's blowing cold now :wookie:

Now I'm about to have it tinted. Thinking 15/1 but idk if I'll be able to get away with it without the fiancé catching me and telling me to do 20 upfront (more legalish than 15)


there is a battery?

It's a ford keypad but wasnt factory installed but done at the dealer after and the parts guy I asked about a new one said they have a battery and it could be dead


thats is odd. good luck

Yesterday:
Installed and tuned up two new ham radio antennas that I bought Sunday, then immediately tested one of them out and made a nice contact with a station in Bulgaria (5,100 miles)
Today:
Made a contact with a station in Norway, which was only about 3,850 miles away but... He was working what we call "long path", using a beam antenna pointed the opposite direction, so the signals actually went over Asia and the Pacific, for a total distance of 21,014.5 miles from his station to my truck parked in my driveway. :D :wookie:

I drove it to the airport, parked it, and flew to Canada for a couple days.
