The only thing I can't stand is no parking. And the few places you can charge you huge fees. Also the idel issue. If I am hot I should be able to idle.
I dont run into very many places who charge for parking, in CA only 2 places I have stopped which charge, TA in Ontario and 49er in Sacramento. Always plenty of places to park for free.
idling will be a problem everywheree soon. state mite no be a prob, its companies like walmart and home depot that hasd no idling on property
I have heard there are cheaper options than getting an apu, im not too knowledgeable in that area though just what I have heard. There are a lot of other places besides walmart and home depot that have no idle rules, then there are some that limit for like 5 min unless state law says otherwise like the Target dc I work at says 5min unless law permits otherwise. I have idled at a customer who posted no idling before, was over 100 degrees and I had to remain in the truck, I figured if anyone said anything I would of threw safety and health at them if it even did any good. I heard one driver once tell security at a place he had heat sensitive medicine and went off on threats, security left him alone after that but I dont know if that would work for others.
Theres a Walmart not far away in Aurora that has designated truck parking. I just left Denver terminal and had to drop a tcall double parked. Parking was rough.
I've been running nights but come summer I'm gunna have to switch it up. I remember a few occasions getting stuck in no idle city/ states sweating my ars off during the day.
