Mine chimes sometimes but it also flashes "Low Oil Pressure" even though the engine hasn't started yet.

I concur.
Not that it has anything to do with the truck being expensive but it's the 400 HP and 800 lbs ft of torque!

Jack, have to agree...Back in Black...baby

Sailor Roy I am an ex navy guy too and still like the AC/DC better...sorry.

As far as female voices are concerned check this out...I know have three women talking to me at the same time:
1) The wife
2) The escort radar detector (red light cams, speed traps etc..)
3) The navigation lady

I do get confused sometimes but have listed the order of priority to keep it real. So you see the ding replaced with AC/DC would be much better...

AC/DC > anything else, ever.

Start up tone bothers my daughter...which is kind of funny to her dad.

If you turn your key to on and don't start the truck within about 5-8 seconds, the low oil pressure light will come on. I don't let mine come on if at all possible. It has a couple of times. I don't know if the LOP warning is stored in the computer or not.
