We have three. I have an 18 (girl) year old and then there are Susan's two and they are 13 (girl) and 11 (boy). I consider all of them mine though and when people ask Susan how many kids we have she always says four and that they are 44, 18, 13 and 11.

So, did anyone figure out if us later model guys have a starter solenoid? I would like to install one of those kill switches.

Just pull a fuse to the PCM, or wire you a kill switch inside the cab.

Looking at the service manual now and it does have a starter solenoid. I am reading the chapter regarding removal and replacement. It just doesn't say where it is. I will take a look for it later.

Take pictures and draw a map if you find it and post them here. I looked at my service manual twice trying to find that thing. Good luck on your snipe hunt.

Scott, check your service manual under the 03 trucks. The only solenoid relay I can find in mine says gasoline engine at the top of the page. I wonder if they deleted this relay during the 02 MY.

Battery cable runs straight to the starter mounted solenoid.
The turbo lifesaver comes with a kill switch you can hide under the dash or anywhere in the cab. She'll never start without knowing where it is.....
