    I wouldn't worry about fumes coming into the cab. Think about everything else under the hood, oil drips, fluids, hot plastic and rubber belts.... Smell any fumes? You're good man, paint that thing, it'll look good.

    Yes sir. I make 100% pure maple syrup. I have almost 200 taps and made 80 gallon of syrup last year. Most was medium grade, some lighter stuff early in the year but never ended up with the dark grade.
    I have visited a couple sugar houses up your way when I was a kid. That's pretty cool you've got some experience making syrup, as you know it's a lot of work but well worth it.

    Don’t worry Bigdog. Pudge has been smelling spray paint for years and he’s fine.
