I have a KVH R5 with the HD converter and DirecTV. Works when we are moving or sitting. Will cost you about 3k, but if you move more tha you park or are out for long periods of time as we are it is the only way to go. Camping World is a great source Forgot to add the DirecTV+ (HD with Tivo)...

I'm to am no expert, but as I understand the one major issue with ULSD and angines 2003 and older is the lack of lubrication in the injectors. The sulpher acts as a lubricant and to slow the burn rate of the fuel.... (So I am told) I run Lucas in the sumer and Howles in the winter. Rikk...
