When I go to start the vehicle, turn the key on, dash lights up, gages move, but trun to start, and nothing at all. No click, slow krank, nothing. Let it sit for awhile, 30 minutes to 2 hrs, and starts like a new vehicle.

It sounds like a bad connection, weak battery, or a bad starter. When it does this, feel the battery terminals on the battery to see if they get hot.

Let me know what you find.
