nothin much
lets see here what do I do to winterize my truck?Hmmmm, I run the heater instead of the ac.I also run my tires at a lower pressure (it helps em get more traction on wet & or frozen roads) and that about covers it. Oh ya, I make sure I have my come along, tow(recovery) strap, and my air compressor in the tool box (after all winter is the best time of the year to go play in the mud & snow).That just about covers it........

well,
I clean the wendy's wrappers & tim hortons cups out of the bed, take the beer cooler & fishing rod out, then throw my snow shovel in, make sure my come along & tow rope are ok, as well as throw an extra long piece of chain in.
Then, i drain my summer windshield washer out of the resovoir, and put a full bottle of the winter in (gotta like that 4L resovoir). wash & wax it, and that's pretty much it. a good coat of wax goes a long way in the winter :P
