    I know that APUs are better, but no one here has mentioned that Crete trucks do have HVAC units to keep the truck hot/cold without idling. You can't do a microwave on a 400 watt, but most other thongs are fine on it. Plus you can get a 2000 watt invertor with a docs note.
     
    Wild Murphy Thanks this.

    Do you have room left to sleep in the back, or do you just sit in the driver's seat..?

    Lol yeah I removed the cabinet from behind the passenger seat and I got one of those double door mini fridges that Walmart has on sale there and used a ratchet strap to tie the microwave to the fridge and the AC unit is secured to the top bunk, I keep the fan up there till I need it, and the computer is mounted to the driver's side wall in the sleeper

    Juggalo - that sounds like a good idea. Do you have a pic handy?
