    110v plug on outside of cab. Can I jump the truck from the wall?

    That's for the block heater in winter. Doesn't charge the battery at all

    Would be nice if it did... I could then keep a generator lashed to the back of the cab and have continuous power without needing to idle.

    My truck has one and it's for shore power hookup. It will supply 120v to the power outlets and charge the battery.

    Usually under the drivers door. That's why I only need a short extension cord for chicken night.

    I'm aware of the video, but I'm not making the connection as it relates to this thread. Perhaps it goes deeper than that and I'll just stay out of it
