    You don't have one? Or truck came with it already? I know I have seen a few trucks at arrow with one on already which would be nice to not have to deal with paying out of pocket for

    Well since I have never dealt with an apu this is a dumb question but does it take diesel from the truck tanks or it has it's own tanks? I know it has it's own motor
