Maybe if I was using a Nimh battery I would consider doing that but this truck has a Lipo and I'm still learning about them and respect them for the potential hazards they present. I'm sure many others have used Lipo batteries for a long time with no issues but I still want to stay on the safe side and not charge in the truck. They manufacture and sell lipo charge bags for a reason right?
I blow a battery on the work bench, no problem. If I fry a battery while in the truck.... Big problem!

Thanks for the input though. It all boils down to personal preference I guess. If I asked 20 guys about charging batteries in the truck, 10 would say not a problem and the other 10 would say don't do it I bet ya
