You know, it is cold here too and we have had snow every single day in December so far.. I think we have about 8-10 inches on the ground in some areas around here, I would say yesterday we got about 6 inches..And what was Anthony doing on this fine day? Funny you should ask, he was building a tarp/plywood shelter around his skid steer, charging the battery and running a 100 foot extension cord to a 65,000 BTU Torpedo heater trying to degell the worthless piece of crap. Only took 7 hours of running the heater yesterday to get it started and moved to the shed... And what happens today you ask? That's right, after idling the sucker for an hour and than taking her out she kills out again because of gelling... Finally got it back into a barn, let it run for 3 hours (Hoping all the pos diesel is burned out now) and ran it to feed the cows at 3:30 today. I am about as irritated as I can be... I guess -11 lows are not good for this skid steer.. Grumble.

I have used the "this old thing" tactic many times.. Usually works.. I say its not a lie if you have had it for over a week before she sees is... Than its not new right?
