 |
|
Had to scrape my windows Friday morning, but still wanted to drive the bus instead of the modern car. Haven't got my stock heat exchangers plumbed into the cabin yet either.
Fired up Mr. Buddy (heater) and was toasty all the way to work. It fits nicely between the seats, and is very stable.
Perfect for this time of year when its cold in the morning, but nice in the afternoon for the drive home. Still gonna connect the heat exhcangers up soon though.

| Does the stock heater usually not perform well? I want to be warm on the way to work, hopefully without Mr. Buddy. |

Let's see. It is November 1, 2011..... Hmmmmn we won't really see this question again until November 21 - although we may have a few early birds because of frozen toes in the NE this weekend. I am more anticipating the "Bays in the snow" series of threads that will launch soon and the "my bus won't start in the morning" series followed by "what's wrong with my battery" series of threads. Super Samba will be busy too locking the 'what oil do I use" threads. I know I have missed one. - oh yeah - the "what is wrong with my lighta - they went out for a moment" thread.
