Troy, All,

OK, I won't pull you over for being a public noise nuisance but think about
it.  A diesel car/pickup truck needs a bigger battery, or two, to handle
engine starting issues than a normal (this is changing) car.  So must the
alternator be up to the bigger task.  That may be seen by some with low IQ's
as an invitation to go a little nuts with high powered car stereo amps and
subwoofers no?
