Wireing

Has anyone ever tried to add another place to plug in the Momty I would like to put a plug up at the front where I can plug in the generator that is in the bed of the truck and be able to cool it down before we stop for the evening is that possible I thing it could be somehow.

Lots of people have done that. Search around in the "Additions & Improvements", and "Montana Technical Help, Problems & Problem Solving" sub-forums.

Dave,

It is very possible, and very easy if your rig is gen-set prepped (more particularly Iota Smartswitch equipped). Here is an album of the installation that I did for exactly the reason you cite:

I was considering doing this to our new rig. I went out and looked in the front compartment and the only thing I found was a 4x4 junction box identified as a generator connection point [30 A, 120v]. There was a gray cable about 1" in diameter going back into the wall. Is that the extent of the generator prep for the '09 rigs?
