So if this "concern"(love that word) only happens during a half hour idle, DON'T LET IT IDLE FOR HALF AN HOUR!!!!!! You are just wasting gas anyway....

Good point. But I bought this for my business. And I will often (especially in winter) let the truck idle while I load it. 15-30 minutes idle time is a regular occurrence when either I or my employees use the truck.
