Best Alarm/Remote Start-Ford Ex Deisel

I have a 02 Ford Excursion Deisel with the 7.3.  What are your thoughts on the best 2way system for this truck.  I would be interested in the ambient temp sensor for when i am snowmobiling up north and there are no plugs available to plug my vehicle in.  Also i have seen alot of posts regarding problems with vehicles shutting down do to high idle.  My deisel when warming up will idle up until i step on the brake peddle.  Any thoughts on this as well would be appreciated.  Thank you very much.

although their may  be many different opinions i prefer viper 791 xv... it has a wait to start wire and tach monitoring witch can both be accessed at the cluster it also has a timer mode that will start your truck every 3 hours.... you might wanna check I think some excursions require a timer relay...

Anything astroflex....the most deisel friendly units on the market.  I. M. O.

Pos, or Neg glowplug input. OR built in timer!  Programable temp sensor 4 temps, and 4 runtimes

I drive a 2001 F350 diesel, I use and recommend Compustar. Look at the 2WFMS if you want remote start / keyless entry or the 2WFM8000AS if you want the same + alarm functions. Compustar is one of the few companies that do not change things by the year, the brain I have in my 01 (which was installed in a 00 before that) is the same brain that is still used today. A good remote start is only as good as the install, ensure that all of the high current connections are soldered.

I have encountered no issues with my Compustar due to idle up. Compustar does indeed also have a plug in low temp sensor, perfect for what you need.

Thank you all for the responses.  I will look at them very carefully to make my decision.  I know everyone has their opinion but this has opened a couple or options i didnt know of before.
