Lotta stress this last couple weeks, but it is the kind of stress that hpoefully results in a well worth it result. I'm in the midst of a process that is very important for me personally.
So, I had a dream night before laast that caused me to stop anything else I was doing on M.R. Truck and address what happened in the dream. I dreamed that one of the little neighbor girls had climbed up in the truck, which they do, because they like the truck. As I was watching, the little head disappeared below the windshield. That's when I heard the engine turn over and saw the truck lurch forward suddenly because she had scooted down in the seat and pushed the start peddle and the truck was in gear.I have dreams like that all the time about things I never think of while I am awake. In this case, I woke up knowing I had a safety issue. The starter peddle is wired directly to the starter. There is no neutral safely switch on this truck and shutting the key off only prevents the truck from starting, not from turning over. So, after short consideration, I've installed a 12 volt shut off switch this morning. I put it in the center of the riser of the seat platform. The key locks in when it is on, and can be removed when in the off position. (Image hidden from quote, click to view.)
