    Well it will turn on and run for about 5 minutes, then get ALT code and shutdown.

    Could be. Has a lot to do with bearing type and style.
    Regulators going out can cause the whine sometimes.
    Only testing will tell.

    The OM is like," You know, we have that new bag of chips, new jar of salsa, jalapenos, two cans of cheese, and at least 6 cans of STAGG, and you did say something about nachos."

    I went to speak, and she's like," You can use the microwave in the fuel island."

    So it's like the Mike Tyson version of a horn... ;)

    Snow included or do you have to pay extra?

    Rest of the thread -
    Turn my head for 5 seconds a pile up ensues...I'll catch up again eventually.

    No. My inverter won't drive one.

    I always planned on keeping Casper long enough to get a better truck, make some money, blah.

    I also said I don't want to be the guy that keeps dumping money into the high mileage truck. About to clock 700K.

    So I gotta do what I gotta do I suppose.

    I find myself clingy because the fuel mileage is still great. Just having the big after treatment things done, and pretty much all new quality rubber all the way around makes it harder.

    But I probably will put an add in truck paper, and start using truck 4 myself.

    Truck 4 has the updated Tri Pac, is a double bunk, and has a MONSTER inverter.
