    Some of the older one's have APU's. The one I picked up in NY had one but it didnt work. Not sure why - but Millis is not on the APU wagon.

    they only have about 30 trucks that have apus on them. all of the t2000s, t600s, and t660s have the bunk heaters in them for the winter and some of the white freigtliners have them to.

    the trucks are set at 66 mph and 62 for the drivers coming out of the schools. the guys in the newer trucks with the talking qualcoms are on paperless logs. the ones with the older qualcoms have to match the qualcom to the log books.

    idle as long as you stay below 40 percent they wont say anything and there have been times mine went over 40 percent and had nothing said about it. they know it gets hot out here and we have to say cool they just dont like you idling for no reason at all.

    Hey Spanky and/or Mr. Express -

    What's the likely hood that the guys in Trenton or any other terminal would allow me to switch out my stereo for one that has the aux input? I cant use my satellite radio with the one in this truck and cant even read the station read out since it's all faded out. I would be even willing to pay for one if I was allowed?

    Your thoughts on how to go about this?
