dual alternators
I see Superduties have dual alternators listed as an option. Anyone have this setup? Do you like it? And how are the loads separated? Thanks.

Technology change the way that even inclined people will loose the connection sooner or later.
My 2007 Powerstroke had long-glowing plugs.
Even in California I had to sit few seconds before I could turn the engine over.
Than the computer would not activate alternator for a few minutes, probably to avoid plugs over-voltage.
But in times when I had to move the truck on the yard couple of times, it would not turn on the 3rd as the batteries never had recharge.

that things fires on instant on cold 50F mornings.
out of curiosity I need to hook up voltmeter to it.
Bad news, it sounds like gasoline Chevy 4-banger, but than it takes some serious reeving to hear it.
Don't ask me for pictures of dual alternators. I took a peak and you hardly see alternators buried behind water-cooled intercooler and other stuff.
Next time I plan to open the hood will be about 10,000 miles.
