I'm sure the turbo just loves being shut down after a long pull.

That 5KW generator would have come in handy during our hurricanes this year.

I'm not sure about these yet. Picture this, you pull up at a light with your 14000# trailer on the back. The engine shuts off, you wait for the light to turn green 10-15 seconds later whatever it takes. The you mash the gas the engine starts then off you go under full load again. How is that any good for lifespan?
