    Funny how everybody knows what is best for everybody else. That is why this Country is in the mess it is in. We try and force our wants and needs on everyone else. Not stopping and thinking on why they are running there trucks. Wait it is none of your business if we pay the fuel and idle time what skin off your back is it. If you do not like the idea of the truck next to you running then move. I will run my truck until the fuel runs out if that is what it takes to make my life more comfortable on the road. Until my company supplies me with an apu to keep my batteries charged it will run until the cows come home.

    I'd like to add that trucking with an APU is a dramatic difference then without one.


    I'll never work anywhere (otr) without one.

    Get over it ! We are all in this together.... maybe that toad parked next to THE PRINCE has to leave it running for some reason like a CPAP machine. Buy some ear plugs
