It needs a good battery. One.
With proper maintenance, there are no starting issues. Hell my diesels start
better than the service truck with the 350 chebby in it.
Low IQ? High powered stereo? Fooey. You haven't listened to Wagner then.
That sucks the meat off the bones of most stereos. Subs are mandatory :-)

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?
