Your work truck has TV, 2 phones, a big digital clock and a thermostat? Who needs Maybachs...

Yeah, I couldn't put the dish up in t-storms, but I might be able to get TV off the dome in the back.

What truck is this? If I ever have the money for a 7 Series, I will definitely be getting this truck instead!

Today and tomorrow it is in the high 80's, low 90's. By Friday, the high will be mid 60's, and a low in the 40's. My kids were sweating their little butts off walking to school today, by Friday, they'll be wearing jackets. N.W. Ohio weather FTW!
