agreed Ralph.  I just posted a similar message about

Its a different story with the Perkins diesel. You've probably seen my 
winter start videos when I have to take the Super 90 out
to put hay bales out for the cattle. Plug that heater in for an hour and 
I've yet to see a day in a Sask. winter I can't start that Perkins.
