    Need general deisel tips, getting my first friday

    good to know, does it high idle when the alts engage? and as i said, when i first started mine i noticed they werent charging and when you reved it up, the lights went out. Any reason to leave it a idle so they dont charge? Dunno why they wouldnt charge at idle?

    Need general deisel tips, getting my first friday

    Well, do the trucks come with a high idle, either manual or automatic? I only really looked at the one im purchasing and i understand what you mean with letting the generators kicking in, but when i reved it, the lighers when out, but it stayed at the normal idle, not a high idle. Are they...

    CUCV camo pattern

    idk, the gl cucv looks like the one in the manual if you look at the lines, but it makes sense that the alfaheaven ones paint scheme is correct, the pattern on the alfaheaven truck is not nearly as exact as the gl one. Regardless im goin to copy the paint and pattern on that alfaheaven truck. Thanks

    CUCV camo pattern

    are those the same colors? After seeing them side by side im not sure if they're the same color but the tan just looks more tanish on the darker green compared to looking duller on the lighter green. So yeah, any idea on the pattern?

    CUCV camo pattern

    The camo pattern appears to be different, the first truck is an alfaheaven, the next is one ive looked on on GL, the pattern in the manual matches the one on GL, not sure if the paint is correct though. Were there other patterns?
