Think inflation/ gas/ groceries bad? Try pricing used pickups!!

I'm not gonna let the thing sit here for 20 minutes for a 8 mile round trip to the groceria. I have thought of putting a limited slip of some sort in, but the diesel warmup remains. I actually thought about converting the old gas truck to a stick, (before I sold it) but it was a standard cab. That of course is another issue--you find what is described says "this" and then you see the photos LOL

The fact is it was simply a mistake not getting a 4WD

You can also get various thermostat temps to help it warm faster.
Also what year is your truck? If it’s a 24 valve or newer, for 100 bucks, a dealer can activate it what is called “high idle” mode, which is a factory installed tune that will increase the idle on its own until the truck warms to 160 degrees. This drastically cuts warm up times in a big way.

It should have a plug in engine block heater as well.
