[Mobile-Portable] Noise in new Ford 6 liter Turbo diesel ?

Yaesu 2600 2m and later an Alinco DR-580 dual-band FM, and an HTX-10
Radio Shack 10m mobile.  I upgraded from the Yaesu 2m to the dual-band,
then "upgraded" trucks and moved both the newer F-150.

I wish I had an "all band" HF, but all I've been able to afford so far
is the 10m rig.
