....when will it end??? ha

Until then, take a look at the youtube vid of my truck starting up after no use for 5 days.

It does this sometimes after one or two days of no use...

Starter isn't engaging enough to catch the flywheel, or you are missing teeth on the fly wheel.

Anyone worked on the starter at all?

I don't believe that anyone has touched the starter...

Is this something that is imperative?.. if so, how much would it cost?

I had a similar problem w/ my 03. I did an engine flush with the Gunk enginge flush from Autozone ($3) and it hasn't happened since.

It's worth a shot.
