    what about the new Evolution and Dynasys SL...........apparently they are the same setup. I talked to reps for both and of course each one says theirs is the best. the sl guy told me his can beat the evolution on every spec and its cheaper.........anybody using an sl??????? :biggrin_1square1:

    I've had a TK for 4 years. Had to replace the alternator and engine mounts. They were aluminum and I switched to steel which is what all of them have now. It has been nice to have. Cools the cab in any temp and I have an Espar heater that will heat me out of the truck in below zero temps. Never had an issue yet with the coolant lines, and it keeps the engine a little warmer for start up. I am switching it over to my new truck when it gets done and may have the engine heat turned up a bit. I hate to idle my truck, and also the batteries are always charged up. Good if you want to run an inverter.
