    Dang guess my old intl. Was missing some lol. Had the one up front. The one on the bunk controls and the one where the cooler goes. I had more by using a 3way upfront but that's all I had that I found built in. Lol

    There is one in the cabinet where a tv would go and there is also one in the right side of the bunk close to the floor.

    If you buy your own inverter than do you have the 2 hour limit usage on it or is it only if you have an inverter WITH an APU?

    began to read this and became annoyed, but

    my annoyance turned a little the other direction. I just don't know how this works...

    lmao!!!! there now I'm laughing...

    do they still manage you similarly as when you were a company driver?

    Lots the same but A LOT more is different. I know some of that is having a different/better FM mine spent many yrs out here as a o/o so that helps. Always have preplans on me b4 I'm done. I ask something and i am talked to like one exspects and not like I'm bothering someone. And if I need something I get it.. there's pros and cons. As one can exspect. Moneywise, can't really say till I get more time down and can compare but even on my low checks and after ALL my cost. I still double my company checks...but if something goes wrong I'm the one paying lol.

    like being pulled from a ditch?
    If you decide to leave Roehl before your lease is up can you continue to lease the truck and run elsewhere? or is it turn in time?

    Good luck with the lease thing... As for the inverters, and them shutting down after two hours, it all boils down to this, a few people could not follow the rules, (on refrigerators)so now everyone will suffer. I think that is the wrong approach, but that is how Roehl handles everything. That is the reason for most of the rules that we follow in this company. We have speed limiters on the trucks so guy won't drive to fast and waste fuel, we have optistop routing to tell us where to go, becuase someone could not look at a map and find the shortest way. I would love to work for a company that just gives me a dispatch and a fuel card and says call when you get empty, but those days are gone forever.
