Viper makes a remote car starter that is used with your iPhone/Android and you can start your car or unlock the doors from anywhere in the world. I wish I had one.

I can do that with my Silverado using my iPhone. (and unlock the doors too)

Even with fabric seats?

Yep. Just find a local shop that sells/installs accessories.

My new truck has heated seats. I like to just turn on the back part and not the seat itself. It feels real good on the back.

This past summer I was going on a dealer buy with another driver. I forget what we were driving, but I reached over and turned on his cooled seat.

Started squirming around a minute later trying to figure out what was going on.

Rod-
do you keep your bike battery on a Battery Tender during storage?

New truck? What's that? I've never owned a completely new vehicle. My daily driver pickup is 20 years old.

You should try it some time----nothing beats that new car smell.

I'm just happy with it not smelling like anything.

Not full time but I do put the Tender on it about every other week until it shows full charge. I also use the Tender on my motor scooter, garden tractor, ATV, and RV batteries as needed.

You have experience with that? Lol

I won't go into detail but....
google "off gassing" and let us know if it is healthy.

I did it for you because I care...

Outgassing - Wikipedia

I don't even notice it anymore.

Besides, all it is is fabrics and plastics outgassing.

I'm told it's a good idea to leave the windows open slightly and the outside vent open unless, of course, you want to ingest chemical vapors.

...but what could I know...

New truck? What's that? I've never owned a completely new vehicle. My daily driver pickup is 20 years old.

The first new vehicle I ever owned was after I had been a full time driver for probably 10 years. It was a 1982 Chevy 1/2 ton 2-wheel drive. Cost me $3,995. I could have had a 4-wheel drive one for $4,995 but I was too cheap. Up until that time I drove junk. I usually get a new truck every 8-10 years and the wife gets a new car about every 4 years. I know new vehicles are one of the worst investment a person can make but I sure like driving stuff that is under warrantee----and you have to spend your money somewhere. We can afford it (always pay cash) so why not.

Nice looking truck. Around here that thing would have been a rust bucket 45 years ago.

I like the one at the Coca Cola offices. Dispenses for free.

When I delivered to our local Pepsi distributor the sodas in the vending machine were $.25.

They would also give us a case of soda at Christmas.
