    You are the Real Deal. Much respect. But. You may want to look into leaving your car running more often, even all night Im pretty sure there is no harm in that at all and it will only use a tiny bit of fuel. After all Truckers basically do what you are doing but every day year round. They all run their engines all night. Some have an APU that is just a small engine that runs to provide heat and AC. Anyway Imma bet you are going places with these videos, you're the whole package and we will remember when "back in the day" you were able to write so many replies. Thank you you're fun!
