back on topic, why does the truck sound like an aeroplane at the lights? thought it might have been some sort of weird supercharger but it has a turbo? so don't know if the 2 can go together ?

Turbos make that noise. Diesel engines can take significantly larger ammounts of boost that petrl engines because the are designed to take huge compression ratios and be run at low revs. Therefore if you have a huge turbo running massive boost then you get a loud wooshing noise.
