Just remember driveways and little parking lots add a lot of wear and tear to the truck. But if you can keep it running all season with minimal down time you can bank loot. I have trucks that sit most of the year, but we wouldn't be able to sell them for what they will make this up coming season

Thanks man, the truck was owned by a school district so they did what ever it needed. I got the thing crazy cheap. I was just looking at it and the only thing I can see that it needs it the rear leaf spring hangers.

School district and township stuff most likely had an easy life. Its probably worth getting the hydraulic fluid changed in the plow pump.

Is a a 5.4 liter V8?

What kind of plow?

why are chu confused? you didn't ask someone to tell you where it was, you just asked if anyone knew its location, which I responded YES.

I felt a little Kenny-ish/RCJ with my response so I will say yes, the thermostat is in the oil filter housing.
