1. My issue is not with the truck but rather the low usage on the battery and low usage & infrequent charging of the battery which leads to sulfating issues on the lead acid battery (which hasn't changed all that much since 1967) and that leads to undervoltage situation which leads to high amperage draw which lead tos shortened lift to electrical and electronic components.
2. I have had professionals try to hurt my feeling (yep it is singular) & have failed. Anything else is like water on a ducks back.
