Update:

Sat down in truck to eat lunch. Fire it up and everything working normal. Loose ground somewhere?

Leaving the jobsite this evening radio came on like normal.  Before I hit the clutch to put it in gear the radio and lighter lost power again.  I drove approx.  one mile down the road and it came back on and began to function just fine all the way home.  I really getting baffled by this one.

Check the terminals (poor connection/looseness) in the fuse block for the Radio fuse.

Has the clutch leaked on the fuse box?

I just put a new fuse box in about a month ago. Fuses are good connections in the box are tight and clean.

Radio fuse is on a busbar with Turn Signals (TS) and Blower Motor (BM). Do TS and BM still function when Radio drops out?

Clutch master is not leaking. Its one of the first things I check whenever an electrical gremlins shows up.

Yes. Blower and signals work

Radio fuse goes straight to the cigar lighter and from the cigar lighter to the radio. Something not right at the cigar lighter connector or the wire between Radio fuse and the cigar lighter.

It also feeds the vanity lamps?  I guess i don't know if those were working or not but I am guessing not.  Looking like I'm not going to get into it tonight, might have to be a coffee project for the morning.
