    This thread has been moved to the Homemade Tools subforum.

    This is definitely a tool and will be added to the Heavy Equipment category of the encyclopedia.

    Man, not sure what to say! Means a lot to win that! I feel lucky, I don't play the lottery, but I think a ticket is now on my list, thanks guys it turned out to be a great truck and best thing is the air conditioning works. Jonathan
