    Just so you can check and compare we have an Idle-free APU on our truck and haven't had a single issue. Idle-free was just purchased by Phillips and Volvo and Mack are using them
    now on their new trucks. Might be worth looking at.

    We just picked up our 2nd lease truck. Had the 2014 now we have the 2015 Cascadia. Not too different. New truck smell and all but not a whole lot else. Had the Idle-Free in that one and this one. No problems with it and we did plug it in a few times with shore power and IdleAir and also at home(to make sure the fridge stayed on)

    As I said not a whole lot different than the 14. Gauges are repositioned the digital readout is more comprehensive. Quieter inside but noisier outside. So far great mpg at 9 but that may change. Only have about 1200 miles. Also the fifth wheel is lower so the ride is better. The seats are more comfortable as well. And the APU is terrific. Overall a good truck. Safe travels.
