2005 Powerstroke FORD, Crew Cab Short Bed Dullie. Hey Ernie where I live in Michigan north of Detroit we have a drive through touchless car wash that will handle a DULLIE. Sure makes washing the truck in the winter time a whole lot more BEARABLE.

no need to fear. just get the quality repair shop exhaust hose and a door flapper. rig it takes 30 seconds at night, hit the remote start...or even put the hose out the far wall and use it even in the summer with the door up and the truck inside.

you don't know my wife and "her" museum clean home. You'd have to enter/exit the garage with the hose on the exhaust every time! Unless ofcourse I pushed it in and out.

The only time that the dually bothers me is going through tolls. Not that it is harder to drive through they just screw you for more money. In MA and NY and most states it is double for what a car would be. In ME car is 1.75 and my truck is 4.40!!! I get pissed ever time I go through!!!
