FCC--Fremont Contract Carriers

New addition to the truck that we picked up during hometime. 1200w, ran it off of the apu plug for its maiden voyage.

 

I have a air fryer Kalorik Digital Universal Air Fryer Lid for 6, 8 & 10QT Pressure Cookers, 8” & | eBay

 

Bloomfield does indeed load heavy.

Dispatched weight of load 43875
Billed cargo 46176

1/2 tank fuel
Fifth wheel moved all the way forward
Trailer tandems slid all the way forward

 

Heavy but should ride smoothly

 

When it's cold out like -2 in Minnesota do they want you to idle the company trucks or what?

 

Ya, every so often it happens… sitting here now for four hours. I kind of thought I should have shut down and rolled in come morning.


Update:
4.5 hour wait
15 minute load

 

Ya, if you call breakdown, they will tell you at what temp it’s preferred to run the truck.

 

I have a copper electric skillet that I use regularly in the truck. When the APU is working. Works great and helps keep the costs down.

 

If you're not in the truck, like my home time, they would rather you put the APU on battery mode. That way it gets an occasional warm up and lasts more than the 10 hours if you have it on heat. I also run an extension cord from the house to power a small heater so food, etc in the truck doesn't freeze.

If you're in the truck, run it. Even at Fremont over the weekend with the wind and temps in the teens, the apu couldn't provide enough heat to keep it warm. The cab was about 40 and the floor was freezing.

 

The APu they have sucks I ran the APu for 3 hours and I felt cold it doesn't keep up.
