    I know its just the "recruiter" talking, but they said that all of the new trucks are coming with APU's and some of the old ones are starting to get outfitted with them, is she just blowing smoke? I know its been over 2 months and things can change but, that is not that long ago.

    I own my own rig so no worries what I can and cant install on my big red. But I got a 6,500. Watt diesel generator and connected my 32" led tv, 13,000 but portable a/c, laptop, dish box and have the tailgater to watch tv while off duty.
    Also its mounted on the catwalk behind bunk

    Do they allow you to have any inverters do you know and what wattage? I know your own your own, but maybe you came across some company drivers that the topic may have come up.

    If I were you I'd try being a driver for a owner operator or much smaller company they have more flexibility with how you personalize the truck

    I think my end goal will be to get on with Schneider after a year or two on their Choice Lease program.
