    Question 2013 F-350 King Ranch Amp gauge?

    I went camping in Quartzsite this two weeks to meet up with old friends. Plenty of drinking and the burning of firewood went on. The truck set for several days not being started and I left the Garmin GPS on. When I went to hook up and leave it would not start. Got a jump from a friend and headed home. Blown a tire on the way home, different story.

    When I went to leave for work the next morning it hit and clicked a bit and then started. So I went looking on Google and now in the owner's manual and I can not find a amp. gauge. All the electronics and being able to talk to it but no gauge.

    Any ideas where they might have hide it?

    My 2013 F-350 does not have an amp meter. That's one of the few things I don't like about it. It does have an idiot light you can see in the tachometer when you turn the key to on prior to starting.

    I use an Edge CTS to monitor that kind of stuff.....

    What is the draw of Quartzsite? It's like camping in a rest stop on the side of the freeway...

    If you don't know I can't explain it.

    You have obviously never been up in a jump plane... Especially a Sky Van ..

    Living without an Amp gauge is about as close to that as I'm willing to get.

    It was actually the morons fault, not the planes. The door opens up, not out.
