I've camped in mine and don't hear it when I'm sleeping. The pump is up under the hood, not near the bed. I only hear those noises inside the garage where it is quiet and the walls help bounce the noise around.
One thing not mentioned here is the SuperCab does not have an adjustment for seatbelt height (at the top mount). If you have a short waist the seatbelt will ride a little high an your neck. Way better than my '91 Chevy was but still a little high. If you are long waisted or tall it probably...
I really don't think it can. Those are low current signal wires on that connector. Maybe if it was plugged in while the engine is running and the alternator suddenly went to full charge, but I doubt it.
No, definitely not what I need. Nobody "needs" this.
This is a WANT!
Sadly, not available in the US. But then, I could never afford it anyway. Nice to dream about though.
I'm with docarter, just carry an extra bottle of oil and check it often.
A little bit of warm oil can make a large mess. If you can't see it dripping you are not likely losing enough to matter. Checking and topping off once a day should be plenty often enough.
You will have a truck with...
A little more than that. I was in Madison, that is only about 100 miles further north than Granger. Admittedly that was a cold spring that year. Then again I remember one year (when I still lived up there) riding home from Freeport IL with my new motorcycle in the snow the last week in April...
Anderson connectors are not weatherproof, so they are not good for this type of use.
SAE 2-pin connectors (like a trailer 4-pin) are weatherproof, but are not good for high power. You can also get them connected in reversed polarity if you are not careful. I have used them on RVs in the...
I wasn't thinking of putting wood over concrete, but concrete instead of wood over the gravel. I agree putting wood over concrete could lead to more problems.
I'd be worried about a wood floor in a garage rotting after several years laying on the ground. The compacted gravel base will likely help, but still...
I would look into the cost of having a cement contractor do it. It will cost more now, but it will be poured, leveled, and smoothed in a...
I have experienced this also. I believe its related to the soft pedal issue these trucks have.
My other vehicle is a Transit 150 van. It doesn't have a soft pedal and I have never experienced creep at a stoplight. Same thing on all previous vehicles.
Not me but a friend (now passed away).
He had an older Ford truck that was way past its prime and was often giving him problems. Woke up one Saturday morning and told his wife he was going out to get her a birthday present. On the way he passed the Chevy dealer. There was a truck sitting on...
I did a similar thing when I first built my garage. It took a couple years to save up enough money to do it right. It did not burn down or cause any issues.
One potental issue: if you have the cord in standing water after a heavy rain the GFCI may trip. No danger, just a nuisance.
