Brought a ton of wood pellets home in it. I got a chance to use the exhaust brake on a decent grade for a couple miles too. This truck is so awesome.

They just built a wood pellet plant here in Faison. 95% of the pellets get shipped over seas. Log trucks through town all day long.

Weird...around here pellets are a "recycled" product...made from the sawdust produced at lumber yards.

Please do! Karl, keep me posted on what you find to be the cheapest. See if we can save a few sheckles. I might know a place where we can get a deal on the AirDog, if we buy a couple.

I'm interested in this if you are...

The price I got was no better than Thoroughbred or any of the others onlibe

:lame:

You were supposed to be the hook-up! :fume: :jester: [emoji38]
$768 Canadian is what I paid for my FASS... Or within $20 of that, lol

At the current conversion rate, that's $581...that's a good deal....can you get a video of the sound from inside the cab? I keep looking at the AD for sound level because My kids will be riding in the back when we camp, i don't want to listen to them whining about listening to the lift pump :)

I've been trying... But it never seems to come through the phone, lol... I want to do some EFI Live testing, so I'll bring a microphone with my laptop... I think it resonates more than it makes noise, for inside the cab.

I'd imagine that your truck is probably less intrusive than mine. I believe you have more sound deadening than I do.

It's not a loud noise, but it's always there... I'm told if you install the draw straw, or a sump, it cuts the noise down, significantly... The factory pickup is apparently restrictive, and the harder the pump works, the louder it gets, lol.

Yeah, my truck is pretty damn quiet...but that's what worries me. Sure you don't hear your pump much with all the belching and farting going on with what you do...but mine is a quiet little stock thing ;)

Honestly, inside, unless you're really on the go pedal you don't hear much without a window open, lol. It might cause less resonance if you mount it where the instructions say, lol. I just wanted the sleeper look.

That's the interior noise... With the heater fan going, in the drivers seat, I can't hear the FASS often.

If you're parked on the side of the road, sleeping in the truck, it's more noticeable, lol. The phone probably reduces the FASS volume by maybe 25 - 30%... Something about the harmonic frequency with the microphone.
