    Does anybody know if Mays trucks have APU's or inverters already in the trucks. If not are they able to be installed aftermarket? I will be driving out of the laverene, Tn hub.

    Well you won't be installing aftermarket APU.

    As far as I know, neither. I called them in the past and I was told no APU on trucks and no inverters.

    Neither one, they will install your inverter after you buy one. I know several May Drivers that have inverters, the deal is there shop installs it.

    How much does an inverter cost, a really good one that is?

    Believe that May has their own inverter you must buy from them. I think it's a few hundred bucks.

    They cost $225.00 new. You can have the cost deducted from your paycheck at $25.00 a week.

    I still have the one I had in my truck. I'll let it go cheap if you want it. I'm on the west coast.

    You no longer have to pay for inverter as for as I know.

    Yeah, I heard that too. But I heard it from another driver who heard it from another driver...

    This sort of ####e really pisses me off: May could at least send out a Fleetwide message on the Qualcomm when important changes occur. Drivers get asked by newbies about working conditions at May. It can only help them to attract (sorely-needed) new recruits by keeping their current drivers somewhat informed.
