    I am starting on Monday inn Green Bay. Can I take the truck to the hotel to load all my stuff? I am trying to figure out what I can and cant bring. Being from AZ I don't plan on coming home for a while. I would like to bring as much with me as possible. I got a rental car to drive the 2000 miles up there over the weekend.

    A few people were able to take their trucks to the hotel on Wednesday and get their stuff. Most, including me, were not able to get their trucks until Thursday. I paid for the hotel Thursday night so I could leave everything there. I did finally get my fuel card at 7:30 last night. By the time I fueled and finished my paperwork it was 8:30. At least I don't need to go back today.

    I went to orientation and Green Bay and usually by the third day you'll be able to drive your truck bobtail back to the hotel and load up all your gear... So take everything you want and need in a rental car with you to Green Bay

    I know people have varying opinions on APUs, but this Idle Free system on my truck is awesome. I can power my computer and cooler all night with the AC running. It still had power after 11 hours last night. My old battery powered system did good to last 6 hours.
