The Cascadia Evolutions have the Idle Free HVAC system that produces 10-12 hours of cooling and the Aspar heater that produces unlimited heat.

Depends on your region. Currently only the southern fleet have them and total about 400 truck. They are a pia to fix. Its a sealed unit to replace the whole cabinet behind drivers seat has to be removed.

The all tractors have Bunk heaters. No issues

I've never had trouble staying warm in my company truck - well the Cascadia anyway. The old beat up Century I started with had some issues with the bunk heater, but the one in the Cascadia would roast you right out of the bunk.
Staying cool was a little bit of of a challenge in early spring and late fall when the outdoor temperature may be below 70* (can't idle) but the sun beating down on the cab really warms it up inside. After that though I had no trouble idling to stay warm, and the exhaust dumping under the cab always kept the sensor nice and warm lol. -
