    It was traced back to the Volvo installed inverter.

    That's not very reassuring. Will the mechanic shop allow me to inspect the inverter before I take the truck. I am an Electrician.

    I'm sure they will. But if you knew the issues we and a lot of other companies have had with these trucks, right off the assembly line, it's enough to make you run for the hills.
     
    KD5AXG and Lonesome Thank this.

    By the way, my buddies truck that went up in smoke is another company, not ours. But, a Volvo is a Volvo.

    Ok, now I'm skeered. I love my Volvo. Really do not want a KW. I know y'all love em , but I don't.

    As for divorces, 2x for me, but I married the same guy twice ( so married 3x). He still puts up with my witchy-ness to this day.

    MD, hope all is well with your wife. Just catching up on all the posts.
     
    MidWest_MacDaddy and JohnBoy Thank this.

    Glad your friend made it out safe along with his dog. It could have been worse.
