    No, it's not all companies. Werner seems to be one of the worst. But hey, whatever. Keep up the recruiting.

    Yeah and if they lie I have no problem leaving them. There’s countless companies out there for hire. And I and preferably going otr so that opens even more options.

    well well I'm driving a 2017 Kenworth T680 and I have a built-in inverter in mind which runs my laptop and my TV in my PS4 and a lot of these trucks have op Idol so you will not be getting too hot or freezing your butt off if you're up north

    I suppose you could park at one of the truck-slops that have A/C pumped into the window. Of course I am sure it aint cheap and I dont much like hanging around truck-slops either.

    Idk what op idle is but all I know is I read that Werner as an automatic idle shut off which sounds like bs if they’re against apu’s and inverters too.

    Yeah but it’s not like I’m gonna be sleeping at a tuck stop every night? You know that’s only really the most ideal situation. :/

    op Idol is up idol is like saying it's summer time when I can't remember what the temperature has to be what is say 70 anything over 70 the truck cuts on runs your AC same difference for winter time I think below 20 degrees or something 24 degrees truck shuts on to wear to run your heat and it just does that over and over but most of these trucks do have bunk heater/ac units that run off diesel so where your engine is not constantly running either

    So basically we have bunk heater AC units instead of APU'S

    But no way to power a fridge or maybe charge your phone or watch tv during off time.. I can maybe work with op idle if that’s the case
