That's the only reason I brought up the neutral safety switch.
When it's one of my jeeps. Big whoop, it crashes into a small tree and stops. A 10 ton truck, yeah it doesn't care about the trees. It crashes through my neighbors house.
Oh yeah, another point no one has mentioned. Neutral. The 5 speed trucks certainly don't have a neutral indicator. Nor is there any sort of easy way to make that happen. The autos wouldn't be as hard though.
The controller damage itself if shutdown isn't achieved. I very much don't want a engine running without some means of shutdown in the event there's no/low oil pressure. The only audible indicator would be when it's already too late.
On the older multifuels, deuces, maybe a few of the 809 series trucks (I can't remember) they use a physical pull lever to stop the engine. You can cut power on them and the engine will continue to run.
